Five men are arrested at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire on suspicion of terrorism-related offences, UK counter-terrorism police say. Police state the men are all British nationals, from London, and aged in their 20s. Officers also say they have secured an extension to continue holding the men while inquiries proceed.

The arrests take place at RAF Fairford, which is used by the US air force for operations, including those related to Iran, according to reporting. Outlets describe the case as a suspected “bomb plot” or “terror plot,” reflecting differences in wording rather than distinct sets of allegations. The overall picture across reports is that police are questioning the men and seeking additional time under legal powers as investigations continue.

Authorities have not publicly detailed evidence or specific targets in the excerpts provided, and the men’s suspected offences are described broadly as terrorism-related.
