This podcast features journalist Matt Kennard uncovering how British bases in Cyprus—RAF Akrotiri and Ayios Nikolaos—are secretly used by the UK and US for spying and military operations across the Middle East. Originally kept after Cyprus’ independence, these bases now support wars in Gaza, Yemen, Syria, and beyond, with 129 US personnel and NSA-funded surveillance. Kennard exposes the lack of transparency, reveals secret flights to Israel, and argues that these foreign-run bases make Cyprus a target and violate its sovereignty. He calls for public awareness and the closure of the bases to promote peace and regional security.
