Tories pledge UK 'Iron Dome' missile defence shield
Original: Tories pledge British Iron Dome
The Conservative Party has pledged to build a British version of Israel's Iron Dome, a missile defence shield protecting the UK from aerial attack. The announcement is drawing debate about cost, feasibility and whether such a system suits Britain's defence needs, with critics questioning the comparison to Israel's situation and supporters framing it as a response to growing threats.
Why now: The opposition party's defence pledge has sparked debate over its practicality and cost amid heightened concern about UK security.
