France and Spain have begun to restrict U.S. military access to their airspace or bases, marking a rare disruption to routine military coordination between the two countries. The move comes as the Trump administration continues its war against Iran. This comes amid increasing friction between the United States and European allies as President Donald Trump increases pressure on NATO partners to support operations related to the war. Italy denied permission for U.K. aircraft to land at the Sigonella Air Base in Sicily before heading to the Middle East, claiming it had not obtained prior authorization from Rome. Spain's defense minister said it had closed its airspace to US planes involved in strikes and did not grant flight authorizations for operations in Iran. The Israeli Ministry of Defense has suspended plans for further professional engagement with France.
