A U.S. official said the Pentagon had redeployed a dozen B-1 bombers to their home bases in the United States from the RAF Fairford base in the United Kingdom, which has been used to support U.S. attacks against Iran, over the weekend of Oct. 3-4, AP reported on Oct. 4. The redeployment followed a recent foiled Iran-linked terrorist attack on the base that resulted in the arrest of five British men on Sept. 27, and the Pentagon reportedly believes that Iran is preparing more attacks, according to The New York Times.
