UK and US tight-lipped after American war planes depart second British airbase | BBC News

Published

on



More than a dozen US Air Force aircraft have left a second airbase in Britain weeks after the US withdrew its bombers from RAF Fairford over a suspected Iran-linked security incident.

The latest plane to leave, a Boeing Stratotanker KC-135 refuelling aircraft, flew from RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk on Tuesday afternoon and headed towards Germany.

The Wall Street Journal reported that the departures have been in response to a further threat from Iran but the BBC has not independently verified that claim.

Downing Street has insisted British air bases are safe and that their security is a “top priority”.
