ВПС Сполучених Штатів вивели свої бомбардувальники з британської бази через загрози терактів з боку Ірану

As reported by Ukrinform, this is reported by NBC News.

U.S. Air Force bombers in Fairford “have been redirected to their home stations in the United States,” a Pentagon spokesman told NBC News.

“Aviators operating U.S. bombers, including B-1s, B-2s, and B-52s, remain ready to provide accurate global strike capabilities, including operations that are launched and recovered from continental part of the United States - anywhere, anytime, ”the official said.

The hasty withdrawal of at least 12 bombers included several aircraft that had just arrived as part of a rotation to the base, two Pentagon officials told NBC News.

American bombers used the airbase, 100 miles west of London, during decades of conflict in the Middle East.

Context

The U.S. Air Force brought home all of its bombers stationed at RAF Fairford and used to strike Iran after investigating a planned terrorist attack at the base.

Last week, a dual British-Iranian national was arrested in central London on suspicion of plotting a terrorist attack following a security incident at the Royal Air Force Fairford in late September. In total, six people were taken into custody and released on bail during the investigation.

What's next

“We have decisions to make about Iran. So the only question is whether it's going to be the easy way or the hard way,” Trump told reporters Saturday as he left the White House for a rally in Ohio.
