US’s Marco Rubio says UK airbase incident involved ‘foreign actor’

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that a foreign actor was involved in a suspected bomb plot near RAF Fairford, a UK airbase used by the US military. Five British men were arrested in London after being spotted approaching the base in three white vans but were later released on bail. Rubio emphasized that the incident clearly involved foreign involvement, without providing further details. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had previously mentioned the base as a legitimate target, but Iran's embassy in London denied any involvement.
