The Wall Street Journal reported from people in the know that following a threat from the Islamic Republic, the United States has withdrawn its military aircraft from a British air base for the second time. US officials are still investigating the exact nature of the threat to British air force base Mildhall.
It is not yet clear whether the threat was immediate or more general.
In early October, following threats said to be linked to the Islamic Republic, the US Air Force returned all the bombers stationed at Farford Air Force Base in Great Britain, which were used to attack Iran, to the US.
