Foiled UK terror plot near RAF Fairford raises alarm over security at US bases worldwide
Investigators say the five men arrested near RAF Fairford, England, may have been planning a coordinated vehicle-bomb attack on U.S. strategic bombers stationed at the base, according to a former intelligence official. A local farmer's quick thinking helped alert police before three suspicious vans could reach the airfield, which hosts American B-52 and B-2 bombers and serves as a key U.S. Air Force hub in Europe. Investigators are reportedly looking into a possible Iranian link, alongside Russian sabotage and Islamist terror angles, and experts warn the plot highlights broader security risks facing U.S. military installations globally.
