On Tuesday, November 10, the US Department of Justice announced criminal charges against three men it called "Iranian agents" for their involvement in an assassination plot at British Royal Air Force Base Fairford.
🔸Muhammad Bagher, Saad Daoud al-Saadi, Mohsen Mohajri and Muhammad Ali al-Hasani were charged in connection with the Mahar Ma incident at this base. Fairford Air Base was used during the American war against Iran.
Todd Blanche, the US Attorney General, said: "Anyone who plans to carry out an assassination plan on a military base where US military forces are stationed will be prosecuted by the US government."
He added: "According to the indictment issued, the defendants supported two foreign assassination organizations, and Al-Saadi apparently coordinated with the other defendants in the days leading up to the attempt to implement this assassination plan." The British officials announced the role of the Iranian government in this incident, but Tehran rejected these accusations.
