英国RAF Fairford美军基地附近发生安全警报,五名伦敦地区的英国籍年轻男子于周日被逮捕12。这五人均为20多岁的男性12,警方在调查中查获三辆可疑白色货车1。当局撤离周围约85户居民并出动防爆小队1。初步报告显示车内物质不是可行炸药,但反恐和爆炸物专家继续检查现场1。
这五名嫌疑人随后被保释,此举引发美国官员的质疑。美国总统特朗普表示:"我会说不要保释他们。我对他们被释放感到惊讶。我不会那样做。"1美国国务卿卢比奥称"外国行为体明显参与其中"12,并在假设语境中提及伊朗1。英国反恐警察局局长劳伦斯·泰勒承认考虑这可能由"代理人或为外国政府工作的个人"实施的可能性1。伊朗驻伦敦大使馆则"绝对拒绝并强烈谴责"伊朗参与的"毫无根据和恶意的猜测"1。
英国工党副领导人露西·鲍威尔为警察的保释决定进行了辩护,表示"我相信我们的警察"2。英国首相安迪·伯纳姆主持了周一晚间的Cobra安全会议1。
Five British men in their twenties from the London area were arrested on Sunday following a security alert at RAF Fairford, a US military airbase in Gloucestershire, England.1 Police recovered three suspicious white vans from the scene and evacuated approximately 85 nearby residents, deploying bomb disposal teams to investigate.1 Initial reports indicated that substances found in the vehicles were not viable explosives, though counter-terrorism and explosives experts continued their examination.1
The arrests and subsequent bail decisions have drawn sharp criticism from US officials. President Trump stated: "I would say don't let them out on bail. I'm surprised they were let out. I wouldn't do it that way."1 Secretary of State Marco Rubio told Fox News that a foreign actor was "clearly" involved in the alleged plot, later alluding to Iran in a hypothetical context.1 British counter-terrorism police chief Lawrence Taylor acknowledged considering "the possibility that this may have been actively orchestrated by proxy or individuals working for a foreign state."1 Iran's embassy in London "categorically rejected and strongly condemned" what it called "baseless and malicious speculation" about Iranian involvement.1
The incident prompted Prime Minister Andy Burnham to chair a Cobra security meeting on Monday evening.1 Labour deputy leader Lucy Powell defended the police's bail decision, stating: "I trust our police."2
