UK Police Arrest Five British Nationals Over Suspected Bomb Plot at RAF Base

In late September 2026, British police arrested five British nationals in connection with a suspected terror plot at a Royal Air Force base in the United Kingdom that is used by U.S. forces. Explosives were found near the base, and police are investigating a possible link to Iran. Iran has denied any involvement.

The five men are being questioned, and details about the suspects have emerged, though questions remain. The base has been used by the U.S. for operations against Iran, according to headlines.
