British police arrested five men on suspicion of plotting a van bomb attack near a military base in Gloucestershire used by the United States Air Force.
Counterterrorism police are investigating whether the suspects were acting for a foreign state as Iran denies any link to the incident near the base used by U.S. bombers.
Counter Terrorism Policing said Monday specially trained investigators examined the scene overnight and developed multiple new lines of inquiry.
