More key European allies are restricting US military access amid a widening rift with Iran over a proposed US war against the country, as France and Italy have moved to block US-linked aircraft from accessing their airspace. The restrictions come as tensions escalate between the Trump administration and its allies following the US drone strike that killed top Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani. Germany has also joined in, restricting US military flights over German airspace. The developments are part of a growing divide within NATO.
