Following the arrest of five British nationals near RAF Fairford on suspicion of terrorism offenses, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that the incident "clearly involves the hand of a foreign actor" and is a "very serious situation." The suspects were later released on bail with strict conditions as the investigation continues, a decision that U.S. President Donald Trump expressed surprise over. British counter-terrorism officials are exploring all possibilities, including involvement by proxies of foreign states, while Iran has denied any role in the events that unfolded near the airbase, which has been used by the U.S. for strikes against Iran.
