I'd argue the response from Israel was surprisingly measured and what's more encouraging was the reply from the Iranians who have gone on record to say they will not be responding to the missile attack.
If there is a chance of a D4E going ahead then the company has a regulatory obligation to inform the market. I still think the timing of the RNS was terrible as it suggested D4E negotiations have been going on for a while but at least they didn't let the SP get back to the 40s and then shock everyone with such a revelation. Along with all LTHs I'm hoping they don't need to go down that route but if they do then so be it as long as they can commit to the contracts already won and hopefully win more work.
