British police arrest two Latvian nationals at RAF Molesworth, a military base housing U.S. and NATO intelligence operations
Two men have been arrested on suspicion of trespassing at a Royal Air Force base in Cambridgeshire, north of London, Sky News reported, citing police.
Two Latvian men, aged 32 and 36, have been arrested by British police on suspicion of trespassing at RAF Molesworth, a military base near London housing U.S. and NATO intelligence operations, according to Sky News. The incident occurred on October 7, with the suspects found after a nearby abandoned vehicle and a hole appeared in the base's perimeter fence.
Police charged the men with entering a prohibited site for a purpose prejudicial to the UK's interests, with London's counterterrorism police leading the investigation. The police spokesperson stated that there is currently no evidence connecting this incident to the events at RAF Fairford, where five people were arrested on September 27 in connection with a suspected terrorist plot.
