2026年9月27日，英國反恐警察在格洛斯特郡的皇家空軍費爾福德基地(RAF Fairford)附近逮捕了五名男子，隨後展開了重大調查。
On September 27, 2026, UK counterterrorism police initiated a significant investigation following the arrest of five men near RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire.
事件發生於週日清晨，當局獲報有三輛可疑車輛正朝該基地行駛。
The incident began early Sunday morning when authorities were notified of three suspicious vehicles heading toward the base.
武裝警察迅速趕往與該基地接壤的威爾福德(Whelford)村，將嫌疑人拘留。
Armed police quickly responded to Whelford, a village bordering the site, and detained the suspects.
這些男子最初因違反《爆炸物法》(Explosives Act)被拘留，隨後因涉嫌預謀恐怖行動而再次被捕。
Initially held under the Explosives Act, the men were later re-arrested on suspicion of preparing a terrorist act.
為確保安全，官員設立了400公尺的封鎖線，並撤離了附近的85戶住家，同時由拆彈專家對這些車輛進行檢查。
To ensure safety, officials established a 400-meter cordon and evacuated 85 nearby households while bomb disposal experts inspected the vehicles.
首相安迪·伯恩罕(Andy Burnham)及其他官員讚揚了警察的迅速應對，並強調局勢已受到控制。
Given recent U.S. strikes against Iranian missile sites, authorities are investigating whether the incident involved state-sponsored actors, including potential links to Iran or Russian sabotage.
儘管調查仍在進行，但基地已加強安全戒備以保護人員與作業安全，官員亦告誡民眾切勿臆測。
Prime Minister Andy Burnham and other officials have praised the swift police response, emphasizing that the situation is contained.
