Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi rejected the version of British Prime Minister Andy Burnham about Iran’s involvement in the preparation of a terrorist attack at Fairford Air Base. The British minister said he had "strong reasons to believe that Iran played a role" in the attack.

Mr. Araqchi recalled that those accused of preparing a terrorist attack at the air base were released on bail. “Iran’s position is that the release of alleged terrorists who worked for foreign countries speaks for itself. You are not there looking (guilty. – “Kommersant”), – commented the Minister in the social network X.

On September 27, police detained five men near Fairford Air Base in Gloucestershire, which is used by the US Air Force. They were charged with preparing a terrorist attack and violating the provisions of the law on explosives. According to the main version of the British authorities, the attackers acted under the control of a foreign state. The Times reported that police were investigating a possible link between Iran and the incident.
