This was Boris Johnson's first reaction to Qassem Soleimani's killing

Prime Minister of Britain Boris Johnson reportedly uttered word 'F***' as first reaction to news of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Commander Qassem Soleimani's killing on January 3. According to international media reports, Israel was communicated about US President Donald Trump's directed airstrike in Baghd but UK was left unaware. Britain works alongside with US and has stationed nearly 400 troops in Middle East. 

However, in his country, Johnson is being widely criticised for t cutting short his trip and 'holidaying' amidst rising tensions between Middle-East and Western countries. On British PM's absence, Foreign Minister Dominic Raab has issued a statement and a travel visory for its citizens to t travel in Iraq. Reportedly Raab also said that nation has 'always recognised aggressive threat' posed by Iran's Quds force which was led by Soleimani and urged 'all parties to de-escalate'.
