Transferring American planes from the British base to Germany due to Iran's threats.

According to the report of the newspaper "Wall Street Journal", citing sources who described them as knowledgeable, the US military moved planes from a second air base in the United Kingdom last Monday after the threat from Iran.

The move comes weeks after US bombers were pulled from the Royal Air Force's Fairford base in what was called a suspicious security incident linked to Tehran.

The Wall Street Journal reports that two American refueling planes using the British Royal Air Force's Mildhall base headed to Germany on Monday morning, while several other refueling planes were moved from the base to Germany and elsewhere in the following hours.

According to this newspaper, US officials are still discussing the exact nature of the threat against the Mildhall base.

This newspaper also quoted a spokesman for the British Ministry of Defense: "We do not regularly comment on the activities of other countries. Aircraft and other equipment are always moved based on operational needs. ".
