According to a report by CBC News, two 24-year-old youths from London have been charged under national security laws in connection with a suspected conspiracy against England's RAF Fairford airbase. Mohammed Abdul Karim is accused of assisting Iranian intelligence services, while Numan Asghir is accused of entering a restricted site with the intent to cause harm to the UK.
Following this incident, the United States had withdrawn its bombers from the airbase. According to UK Assistant Commissioner Lawrence Taylor, several such incidents have occurred recently which are believed to be directed by Iran.
