According to BBC News, five other men, all UK nationals from London in their twenties, were also arrested and later released on bail.\n\nThe incident at RAF Fairford occurred last weekend, when police were alerted to suspicious vehicles near the base, leading to the evacuation of a nearby village and a major incident being declared.
