The United States has moved aircraft from British bases and raised its security alert level following threats attributed to Iran and security incidents, including the arrest of two Latvian men inside a military base. Although the United Kingdom hosts around 12,300 U.S. military and defense personnel—fewer than Germany—it is home to bases of strategic importance. Mildenhall is the only permanent base in Europe for U.S. refueling aircraft; 10 aircraft were moved from there after a threat described as credible. Fairford, meanwhile, can accommodate all three types of U.S. long-range bombers. Officials and experts believe Iran has broadened its threats to include military facilities, and that targeting bases could also be intended to weaken ties between Washington and its allies. British authorities say security measures have been strengthened and that their agencies are capable of dealing with the threats.
