British police have re-arrested two men on suspicion of assisting Iran’s intelligence services, as part of an investigation into an alleged plot to attack RAF Fairford airbase last month. The suspects, a 24-year-old British citizen and a 25-year-old dual British-Iranian national, were previously arrested and released on bail.

This development represents an escalation in a counter-terrorism investigation linked to Iranian state activities on British soil. The men face serious charges related to providing material support to Iranian intelligence operations. The investigation highlights ongoing security concerns regarding Iran’s attempts to conduct operations in Western nations.

Counter-terrorism officials have intensified their probe into the suspected attack planning, with the arrests marking a significant step in disrupting what authorities characterise as a coordinated intelligence operation by Tehran.
