Report: US relocates refueling aircraft from another British base

According to the report, citing The Wall Street Journal, the United States moved refueling aircraft from Mildenhall in Britain as a precaution amid tensions with Iran.

The report says at least nine refueling aircraft were relocated between European bases this week. Mildenhall is another British base from which aircraft were moved as part of the redistribution; this is not an announcement that all US forces are leaving the country.

According to the cited source, there was no direct Iranian threat against Mildenhall. The redistribution is described as precautionary and does not confirm a decision on a new attack or that this base was attacked.
