By: Amir Daftari for Newsweek

U.S. bombers have carried out their second flyover in the Middle East within 48 hours at a time of growing tensions over Iran’s nuclear program.

The B-52s, deployed from Royal Air Force Base Fairford in the United Kingdom, flew over six U.S.-aligned countries in the region, accompanied by a fighter escort from one regional nation, according to a statement from U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM). Newsweek has reached out to CENTCOM for comment via email The bomber flights come as U.S. President Donald Trump‘s administration seeks to halt Iran’s uranium enrichment although Trump has said he would prefer diplomatic negotiations rather than military intervention.
