周日在英国一处关键美军轰炸机基地附近被捕的五名男子，可能曾策划一场“复杂”的协同袭击，这对全球美国军事设施可能产生影响深远的安全隐患，一名前美国情报官员警告称。
当反恐警察在格洛斯特郡费尔福德皇家空军基地附近拘留嫌疑人后展开调查时，一名前五角大楼官员还表示，如果确实“线索指向德黑兰”，唐纳德·特朗普总统最终将决定相关后果。
这些男子最初因涉嫌违反英国《爆炸物法》被扣留，随后因与该机场相关的恐怖主义指控被捕。费尔福德皇家空军基地是美国空军的关键枢纽，也是美国战略轰炸机在欧洲的主要基地。
周日，特朗普表示美国当局在嫌疑人被捕前就一直在对其进行监控。

“我们一直在对他们进行调查，”特朗普在芝加哥对记者说。“他们打算对我们的基地造成重大破坏。”
“可能是苏格兰场牵头，我不确定。我们和他们很多部门都有合作。我们已经监视他们很长时间了，然后成功将他们抓获，”特朗普补充道。
据天空新闻报道，反恐警方正在调查伊朗是否与这起疑似炸弹阴谋有关。
特朗普政府前白宫官员摩根·墨菲对福克斯新闻数字频道表示，英国当局正与美国执法部门和情报机构联手主导调查。
“每一部手机、每一笔银行记录和每一张租赁收据都将被英国和美国情报机构排查，如果线索指向德黑兰，一定会被查到，”墨菲明确表示。
“但由于美国飞行员和轰炸机似乎是目标，基地的空军调查人员、伦敦联邦调查局人员以及美国情报机构可能都会参与此案。”
“如果确凿证据证明伊朗策划了针对美军的袭击企图，美国总统最终将决定德黑兰如何付出代价，”墨菲补充道。

前国防情报局官员安德鲁·巴杰对福克斯新闻数字频道表示，涉案嫌疑人数量和车辆规模增加了行动精密复杂的可能性。
“我们将看到欧洲、英国乃至全球所有美国军事设施的安保警戒级别升级，”他说。
“这是一个非常严重的威胁，而且，正如我们看到有五名涉案人员，现场还有据报道的三辆不同货车，这可能是一场极其复杂、精心策划的行动，”巴杰补充道。
“这绝非某种业余的独狼式袭击，”他指出费尔福德对美国军方的战略重要性。“费尔福德也是美国为欧洲乃至全球部署战略轰炸机的基地。”
他表示，潜在袭击带来的风险远超机场本身，“可能产生重大安全影响，甚至波及周边区域。”

“他们可能试图使用车辆自制炸弹（VBIED），第一辆货车在正门引爆，然后其他货车冲入基地，企图袭击战略轰炸机，”巴杰说。
英国当局尚未公开指认他们认为的阴谋幕后主使，也未公布动机，但费尔福德皇家空军基地在对伊战争期间的战略重要性有所提升。
英国政府此前已批准美军使用费尔福德皇家空军基地和迭戈加西亚基地开展有限防御行动，包括直接摧毁伊朗导弹及发射装置。
伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队（IRGC）随后警告称，任何用于袭击伊朗领土的基地都将被视为合法目标。
“任何用于发动针对伊朗领土袭击的基地，都是我们部队的合法打击目标，”伊朗革命卫队在相关报道中称。
“德黑兰曾在7月警告伦敦，不要让美国轰炸机进驻费尔福德基地，如果此次阴谋溯源至伊朗，应对方案应是增派轰炸机，而非减少部署，”摩根说。

一名当地议员告诉路透社，费尔福德基地近期曾发布安全警报，安保 surveillance 已加强。
“大约六周前，伊朗人针对该基地发出过明确威胁。当时，该区域的监视强度有所提升，”他对该媒体表示。
不过巴杰告诫不要急于认定伊朗是幕后黑手，同时指出了其他潜在威胁。
“这可能是伊朗试图在谈判中获得战略筹码，但也存在其他行动方，”巴杰补充道。
“还有俄罗斯，其一直在欧洲发动灰色地带或混合战争袭击，以及伊斯兰极端分子，他们在英国仍是重大威胁。”
“这会不会是伊朗为了在谈判中获取筹码，或是为报复美国退出相关谈判而实施的报复行动？我们目前尚无定论，但这是一种可能性，”巴杰说。
巴杰还提到了韦尔福德皇家空军基地，这是一处主要为费尔福德皇家空军基地行动提供支援的大型美国弹药储存设施。

“韦尔福德皇家空军基地实际上是欧洲第二大武器和弹药储存库，”巴杰说，他指出美国储存弹药的设施“也可能成为袭击目标”。
“欧洲其他基地，包括欧洲和美国盟友的基地，已经处于高度戒备状态，”巴杰继续说道。
“当然，此次袭击事件发生后，我认为它们的戒备等级还会进一步提升。安全巡逻的频率将会更高。”
“有报道称费尔福德皇家空军基地已进入所谓的‘德尔塔警戒’状态，这是军事基地安保警戒体系中的最高级别，”巴杰说。
“这基本等同于‘即将发生迫在眉睫的恐怖袭击’，”他总结道。

A former Pentagon official warned Trump would decide how Iran ‘pays’ if evidence shows Tehran was behind an attempted attack on RAF Fairford

Five men arrested near a key U.S. bomber base in the U.K. on Sunday may have planned a “complex,” coordinated attack with potentially far-reaching security implications for American military installations globally, a former U.S. intelligence official warned.
As counterterrorism police investigated after officers detained the suspects near RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, a former Pentagon official also said President Donald Trump will ultimately be the one to decide the consequences if indeed the “trail leads to Tehran.”
The men were initially held on suspicion of offenses under Britain’s Explosives Act before being arrested on terrorism charges in connection with the airfield, a key U.S. Air Force hub and the primary European base for American strategic bombers.
On Sunday, Trump said U.S. authorities had been monitoring the suspects prior to their capture.

“We had them under investigation,” Trump told reporters in Chicago. “They were looking to do big damage to our fort.”
“It may have been Scotland Yard. I don’t know. We worked with a lot of them. We had them under view for a long time, and we got them,” Trump added.
According to Sky News, counterterrorism police were investigating whether Iran is linked to the suspected bomb plot.
Former Trump White House official Morgan Murphy told Fox News Digital that British authorities are leading the investigation alongside U.S. law enforcement and intelligence.
“Every phone, bank record and rental receipt will be run through British and American intelligence, and if the trail leads to Tehran, it will be found,” Murphy clarified.
“But as American airmen and bombers seem to have been the target, Air Force investigators on the base, the FBI in London, and American intelligence will likely all work the case.”
“If conclusive evidence proves Iran is behind an attempted attack on U.S. forces, the American President will ultimately decide how Tehran pays,” Murphy added.

Former Defense Intelligence Agency official Andrew Badger told Fox News Digital the number of suspects and vehicles involved raised the possibility of a sophisticated operation.
“We are going to see elevated security protocols across Europe, across the U.K., and across the entire world for any U.S. installation,” he said.
“This is a very significant threat, and again, seeing that we had five individuals involved and three different reported vans at the scene, this could have been a very complex, highly orchestrated operation,” Badger added.
“This isn’t just some type of amateur lone wolf operation,” he said, noting Fairford’s strategic importance to the U.S. military. “Fairford is also where the U.S. houses its strategic bombers for Europe as well as the rest of the world.”
He said a potential attack posed broader risks beyond the airfield itself which he said “could have had significant security implications. It could have damaged the nearby area.”

“They could have tried to use a VBIED or a vehicle-borne explosive device where the first van could have gone off at the front gate, and then the other vans would have gone in and tried to go for the strategic bombers,” Badger said.
British authorities have not publicly identified who they believe was behind the suspected plot or announced a motive, but RAF Fairford had taken on greater strategic importance during the war with Iran.
The U.K. government previously authorized U.S. forces to use the Royal Air Force bases Fairford and Diego Garcia for limited defensive operations, including destroying Iranian missiles and launchers at their source.
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) later warned that any base used to attack Iranian territory would be considered a legitimate target.
“Any base used to launch attacks on Iranian territory is a legitimate target for our forces,” the IRGC said, according to reports.
“Tehran warned London in July to keep American bombers off Fairford, and if this plot traces back to Iran, the answer must be more bombers, not fewer,” Morgan said.

A local councilor told Reuters there had been a recent security alert at Fairford and surveillance had been stepped up.
“So there was a specific threat about six weeks ago from the Iranians on this base. At the time, there was increased surveillance around the area,” he told the outlet.
Badger, however, cautioned against assuming Iran was responsible while pointing to other potential threats.
“This could be Iran trying to gain strategic leverage in negotiations, but there are other actors as well,” Badger added.
“But there’s Russia, who’s been launching a campaign of gray zone or hybrid warfare attacks across Europe, as well as Islamic extremists, which are still a significant threat here in the U.K.”
“Was this some type of retaliation by Iran to perhaps try to gain leverage or to try to inflict a cost for the U.S. withdrawing from these negotiations? Again, we don’t know for sure, but it is a possibility,” Badger said.
Badger also pointed to RAF Welford, a major U.S. ammunition storage facility that primarily supports operations at RAF Fairford.

“RAF Welford is actually the second-largest weapons and ammunition depot in all of Europe,” Badger said, noting that the facility where the U.S. stores ammunition “could have been a target as well.”
“Other bases across Europe, including European and U.S. partners, have already been on a heightened state of alert,” Badger continued.
“But of course, after this attack, I think they’re going to be in an even more heightened state. You’re going to have more frequent security patrols.”
“There are reports that RAF Fairford was put onto what’s called the Delta alert, which is the highest state of security alert within the military base system,” Badger said.

“So this is basically that ‘an imminent terrorist attack is inbound,’” he concluded.
