US pulls all bombers from key UK base after suspected Iran-linked terror plot

All U.S. Air Force bombers in the U.K. were returned to their home bases in the United States following a suspected terror plot that U.S. officials have suggested may be linked to Iran targeting a U.S. military facility last week, officials said.

About a dozen B-1 bombers were among the aircraft removed from Royal Air Force (RAF) Station Fairford in Gloucestershire, England, a U.S. official told Fox News. The base is the only European forward operating location for American heavy bombers.
