US refueling aircraft were evacuated from the RAF Mildenhall base in the United Kingdom because of an alleged Iran threat, according to The Wall Street Journal. The Jerusalem Post and Middle East Eye both relayed the report, which describes a second UK base affected. The reports do not detail the nature of the threat or whether any attack was planned. The evacuations come as the US confronts Iran and weighs its military posture in the region.
