British Defence Minister Wes Streeting suggested that security services knew beforehand about a planned bombing at RAF Fairford, aligning with President Trump’s claims. Five men were arrested for violating explosives laws and terrorism suspicions, with authorities investigating links to Iran. A local farmer claimed her tip triggered the operation, though Streeting noted she had an incomplete picture of the incident.
