Yes. On Thursday, October 1, 2026, Counter Terrorism Policing said it had made a further arrest in the investigation into activity reported near RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire on Sunday, September 27. A 25-year-old dual UK/Iranian national was arrested in the Borough of Westminster, London, on suspicion of preparation of terrorist acts under Section 5 of the Terrorism Act 2006, and searches of two properties in the same area were carried out.
Senior National Coordinator Vicki Evans said investigators are examining all possible angles, including possible foreign state involvement, and that five men in their 20s arrested on September 27 remain on police bail. A police note later the same day corrected the man’s age from an earlier figure of 27 to 25.
