Seventh man bailed in connection with alleged terror plot near RAF Fairford
The seventh man arrested by police investigating a suspected terror plot close to RAF Fairford has been released on bail.
On Thursday, British authorities announced the release of 22-year-old British man from custody on bail, following his arrest as part of an investigation into a suspected terror plot targeting RAF Fairford airbase. This marks the seventh individual to be detained in this probe. The United States announced on Monday that they had removed American bomber planes from the RAF Fairford airbase due to a threat linked to Iran.
These planes had been utilized by the US for military strikes on Iran. Although many details surrounding the plot remain unclear, US officials informed Reuters that the relocation of the bombers was prompted by concerns over an Iranian plan to execute a sophisticated drone attack on the base. Among the five men apprehended near the airbase on September 27 were all British nationals, with one being a dual British-Iranian individual who was later released on bail.
Counter-terrorism police revealed on Thursday that the latest suspect to be released on bail was subject to strict conditions, and the investigation into this matter is still ongoing.
