  "summary": "The U.S. has charged three men, including one already in custody, with plotting terror attacks that included a planned assault on a British airbase used by the U.S. Air Force. The charges, outlined in a superseding indictment in Manhattan federal court, allege that Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood al-Saadi, an Iranian-Iraqi national, and his co-defendants, Mohsen Mohajeri and Mohammad Ali al-Hassani, conspired to orchestrate terror attacks on Jewish communities in Europe and the U.S., as well as the RAF Fairford base in the UK. Only al-Saadi remains in custody, having been arrested in the spring. U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald stated that the defendants coordinated the plot to target American servicemembers at the British military base. The incident has raised concerns about Iran and Iran-backed terrorist groups posing a real threat to America and its allies.",
