Iran war: Tehran fails in missile strike on the US-UK base at Diego Garcia

DW News on Youtube has the story.

Tehran has fired two long range missiles at the remote US UK base on Diego Garcia — one intercepted, the other failing mid flight. The attempted strike, condemned by the UK as "reckless," shows Iran is willing to hit far beyond the Gulf as the conflict widens. The missiles traveled farther than previously believed possible, raising new questions about the true range of Tehran's weapons.

With Diego Garcia lying nearly twice as far as Iran's assumed maximum missile range, DW spoke with experts Farzan Sabet and Hans‑Jakob Schindler to assess the real capabilities of Iran's missile program — and to examine how seriously governments and the public should take Tehran's warning that Israelis and Americans are now "unsafe worldwide."

Iran's Revolutionary Guards say the escalation in fighting in the region means the Strait of Hormuz is no longer safe and is essentially closed to traffic, according to media reports.

Hong Kong police have confirmed that 168 people died in the massive blaze that ripped through an apartment complex in Hong Kong last November - seven more than previously announced.

HONG KONG - The death toll from a fire at a residential complex in Hong Kong has risen to 168 from 161, officials said Thursday, after the remains of more victims were identified seven weeks after the Chinese territory’s worst blaze in decades.

All sets of remains have been identified and all families have been notified, and there are no more missing persons unaccounted for, police said.

Few of the victims have been publicly named. They include Ho Wai-ho, 37, a firefighter, and 10 foreign domestic workers — nine from Indonesia and one from the Philippines — who were identified by their governments.
