Arrest of suspects near US airbase in UK
Five men were arrested early on a Sunday on suspicion of explosive and terrorism offences near RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, an airbase used by US bombers against Iran, after a call about three suspicious vehicles. Bomb disposal teams examined vehicles and dozens of homes nearby were evacuated. The five were later released on bail, and Trump said he was surprised by that and that the case might be linked to Iran.
