Five men bailed after arrests near US-run UK air base
Original: 5 men arrested near a US-run air base are bailed as UK police probe whether there's a link to Iran
British police have released on bail five men who were arrested near a US-operated air base in the UK, as counterterrorism investigators examine whether the men had any connection to Iran. The arrests and the possible Iranian link have drawn attention given tensions surrounding Iran and the presence of US forces on British soil. Investigators have not confirmed the nature of the suspected plot or announced any charges.
Why now: The possible Iran connection and the sensitivity of a US air base in the UK make the case newsworthy amid heightened tensions with Tehran.
