Foiling the attack on the US base in Britain: one of the suspects called the police

The planned attack on the British Royal Air Force base RAF Fairford was foiled after one of the suspects called the police at the last moment. Investigators are examining whether this was a case of last-minute remorse or part of a plan to test the authorities' response. Meanwhile, possible Iranian involvement is being investigated. The five suspects, all British citizens, have been released on bail.

The planned attack on the British Royal Air Force base RAF Fairford was foiled after one of the suspects in the plot called the police at the last moment. According to a report in the British 'Times', investigators are now examining what motivated him to call the police – whether he panicked and had last-minute remorse, or whether this was part of a plan designed to test the authorities' response. Meanwhile, the investigation is examining whether there is Iranian involvement in planning the attack. Yesterday it was reported that the attack was foiled thanks to a curious farmer from a nearby village, who noticed five masked men and called the police. All the suspects arrested are British citizens, who were released from custody yesterday. The air base, which serves as a launch point for American strikes, had already been under significant security reinforcement before the stormy night.
