Prime Minister Andy Burnham finally addressed Iran while giving an update on the investigation into the RAF Fairford military base incident in which five men were arrested. 'There are strong indications that Iran played a part in what happened over the weekend at RAF Fairford,' Burnham said in an interview.
'But of course, it remains an ongoing complex and serious police investigation,' Burnham also said. When the five men were arrested early Sunday morning on suspicion of explosives offences and preparing a terrorist act, Burnham asked the public not to speculate. Counter Terrorism Policing (CTP) later confirmed that a quantity of petrol, but no explosive devices, was found in the three vans.
