  "account": "A dual U.K.-Iranian national, arrested on suspicion of plotting a terror attack at a U.S.-run military base in England, has been released on bail, authorities announced on Saturday. The 25-year-old man was apprehended in central London on Thursday, and police conducted searches at two properties in the city. Five British nationals in their twenties, also linked to the suspect, were initially detained on Sunday in connection with explosives and terror offenses near the RAF Fairford air base. This base has served as a launchpad for American bombers targeting Iran. The five suspects were subsequently released on bail. The incident prompted the evacuation of numerous residents living near the base, with armed police and army bomb-disposal experts responding to the scene. Police discovered gasoline in three vans associated with the five suspects, but no explosives were found. British authorities have attributed the incident to Tehran.",
