British prosecutors have charged two men following a security incident at RAF Fairford, a military base used by the United States for operations against Iranian targets.
Mohmed Abdulkarim, 24, faces a charge under the UK’s National Security Act for allegedly engaging in conduct likely to assist a foreign intelligence service between August 31 and September 28. Authorities have not identified the country involved.
The charges follow the arrest of five people near RAF Fairford on September 28 on suspicion of explosives and terrorism offenses. The investigation is being led by counterterrorism police.
US President Donald Trump previously said American long-range bombers had been moved from Britain following a threat linked to Iran. UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham suggested Iranian coordination was highly likely, but Tehran denied involvement.
