And there’s been no hints for participating any further
They have US military bases there and that’s why Lebanon made that threat, and more specifically Nasrallah said:
“The Cypriot government must be warned that opening Cypriot airports and bases for the Israeli enemy to target Lebanon means that the Cypriot government has become part of the war and the resistance (Hezbollah) will deal with it as part of the war” [source]
Also you said:
Imagine yelling at someone who’s only ever done positive things for your people.
I’m sorry but this example is irrelevant. The threat does not come from Palestine, it comes from Lebanon.
There are no US military bases in Cyprus. There are british ones(since Cyprus used to be part of the British Empire).
And there is 0% chance that Cyprus would let israeli military launch attacks from Cyprus.
Nor is there much strategic reason to do so, unless Hezbollah has some s-300/400 and Israel needs to go around them and attack from a different direction. But they dont. And even if they had, Cyprus has basically no reason to allow Israel to do that and there is 0 precedent for that either.
I think it is just Hezbollah being an attention whore.

They have, at least according to the

I suppose the above could also be a reply for Billy@lemmy.dbzer0.com.
I mean… It’s even in the name there. RAF is Royal Air Force.
