費爾福德基地長期被美軍用於中東作戰,近月來曾支持對伊朗的防禦性打擊。伊朗曾警告此類基地將成為合法打擊目標。
美國已將其所有轟炸機撤離英國皇家空軍費爾福德基地(RAF Fairford)。該基地日前發生一宗事件,目前正由反恐警務部門調查。
美國一名部門官員星期日(10月4日)發表聲明證實,已將所有轟炸機從該基地撤回美國本土基地。
美方未有說明撤離原因,但此舉發生於9月27日一宗「重大事件」之後。當時警察接報稱,在格洛斯特郡(Gloucestershire;告羅士打郡)空軍基地附近發現三輛「可疑車輛」。
基地附近最初有五名男子因涉嫌恐怖主義罪行被捕,其後獲警察保釋。第六名男子為英國—伊朗雙重國籍人士,之後亦被捕並獲保釋。
倫敦白廳(Whitehall)消息人士並未否認,華盛頓方面作出有關決定,是回應費爾福德基地事件。
BBC亦獲悉,這是一項軍事而非政治決定,是在作戰層面作出,並由美軍向英方對口單位傳達。
英國國防部未有置評。
事件發生數天後,首相貝安德(Andy Burnham)表示,有「強烈跡象」顯示伊朗在事件中扮演了某種角色,但未有提供進一步細節。德黑蘭則強烈否認任何牽涉其中的指控。
最初被捕的是五名年齡介乎23至25歲的男子。他們在凌晨時分被捕,當時有人報稱有車輛正駛向由美國空軍(USAF)運作的基地。五人均為來自倫敦的英國公民。
他們最初因涉嫌爆炸品相關罪行被捕,其後則涉嫌準備實施恐怖主義行動。隨後警察以其所稱「基於經驗與策略」的「調查決定」為由,批准他們保釋。
第六名男子現年25歲,於上星期四(1日)在倫敦被捕,涉嫌準備實施恐怖主義行動。反恐警察於星期六(3日)證實,他亦已獲准保釋。
英國皇家空軍費爾福德基地數十年來一直被美國空軍(USAF)用作前沿作戰基地。
近月來,在英國批准美國使用該基地對伊朗發動防禦性打擊後,美軍轟炸機曾由該基地起飛前往中東。
伊朗於7月表示:「任何被用於對伊朗領土發動侵略行動的基地,都構成我方部隊的合法打擊目標。」
在該事件發生數天後,以及第六名男子被捕之前,美國國務卿馬可·盧比奧(Marco Rubio,魯比奧/魯比歐)在福克斯新聞(Fox News;霍士新聞)表示,事件「顯然涉及外國勢力介入」。
盧比奧未有提供進一步細節,並表示當時他能夠公開談論的內容受到限制。
美國總統唐納德·特朗普(Donald Trump;川普)則表示,他對五名男子獲准保釋感到「驚訝」。
他說:「我們知道有關他們的一切,我們不會釋放他們。」並補充說,英國在此事上與美國「非常密切」合作。

The FBI arrested Zhang Wanying, a real estate agent suspected of working for the Chinese government, at the Los Angeles International Airport. She was accused of meeting Chinese officials through connections at the Beijing Institute of International Relations. She followed Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te's eldest son, Lai Ting-ho, and his family on September 1, 2025, photographed his home and car, and reported the operation through WeChat. If the relevant information falls into the hands of Beijing, it may become a bargaining chip to pressure the Taiwanese president in future conflicts.
