UK police arrest 22-year-old over suspected RAF Fairford terror plot

British counterterrorism police arrested a 22-year-old British man in Westminster on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts, bringing to seven the arrests linked to a security incident near RAF Fairford. Six other men, including a British-Iranian national, have been released on bail; investigators are pursuing multiple lines of inquiry, and police have not publicly detailed the suspected plot or its motivation. The incident prompted evacuations after three vans linked to suspects were found containing gasoline but no explosives. UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham cited strong indications of Iranian involvement, while Iran denied responsibility; President Donald Trump also said those behind the threat were linked to Iran but provided no details. The United States moved B-1 and B-52 bombers from Fairford after reported threats, though the connection between the redeployment and the arrests remains unclear.
