五角大楼已撤出部署在英国皇家空军基地的轰炸机，该基地上周曾是一起疑似恐怖袭击未遂事件的核心地点。
The Pentagon has removed bombers based at the Royal Air Force base in the U.K. that was at the center of a suspected attempted terrorist attack last week.
《纽约时报》援引两名不愿透露姓名的美国官员的消息报道称，在出现与伊朗相关的新阴谋威胁后，此次撤军行动以异常迅速和紧急的方式执行。
The New York Times, citing two unnamed U.S. officials, reported that the withdrawal had been carried out with unusual swiftness and urgency after new threats of a plot linked to Iran had emerged.
一名美国国防部官员表示，部署在费尔福德皇家空军基地的所有美国轰炸机现已返回美国本土基地。
A Defense Department official said all American bombers deployed at RAF Fairford had now returned to their home bases in the U.S.
自2月底开始的对伊朗军事行动中，美军战机曾使用费尔福德皇家空军基地。
American warplanes had used RAF Fairford in the military campaign against Iran that began in late February.
这一变动将关键装备撤出了欧洲轰炸机部队首选的前沿作战基地，但这位五角大楼官员表示，操作美国轰炸机机队（包括B-1、B-2和B-52）的人员仍随时准备在全球任何地方执行精确打击任务。
This shift takes critical equipment out of the preferred forward operating base for bomber aircraft in Europe, but the Pentagon official said the personnel who operate the U.S. bomber fleet, including B-1s, B-2s and B-52s, remain prepared to carry out precision global strikes anywhere.
英国首相安迪·伯纳姆在七月批准美国使用该基地对伊朗进行“防御性打击”，延续了其前任基尔·斯塔默的政策。
U.K. Prime Minister Andy Burnham in July approved the use of the base by the U.S. for “defensive strikes” against Iran, continuing the policy of his predecessor, Keir Starmer.
《华尔街日报》周日早些时候报道了轰炸机的重新部署情况，援引一名美国高级官员的话称，伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队在费尔福德阴谋中招募了英国人。
The Wall Street Journal reported about the bombers’ redeployment earlier Sunday, citing a senior U.S. official as saying that Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps had recruited Britons in the Fairford plot.
英国国防大臣韦斯·斯特里廷表示，伊朗很可能对这次被挫败的袭击企图负有责任，此前警方周四宣布逮捕了一名拥有英国和伊朗双重国籍的男子。
U.K. Defense Secretary Wes Streeting said Iran was likely responsible for the thwarted attempt to attack, after police said on Thursday they had arrested a British-Iranian dual national.
这名27岁的嫌疑人因涉嫌准备恐怖活动于伦敦被拘留，使与该事件相关的被捕人数增至六人。另一名英国籍男子接受了警方问询，当地两处房产也受到了搜查。
The 27-year-old suspect was detained in London on suspicion of preparation of terrorist acts and brought the tally of people arrested in connection with the incident up to six. Another man, a British national, was questioned under caution and two properties in the area were searched.
“我们正在与警方和安全部门探讨一系列线索和可能性，但正如我们首相所言，伊朗很可能是幕后黑手，”斯特里廷在冰岛接受采访时表示，同时强调英国尚未正式将袭击归咎于伊朗。
“We’re exploring with our police and security services a range of leads and possibilities, but as our prime minister has stated it is likely that Iran was responsible,” Streeting said in an interview in Iceland, while emphasizing that the U.K. had yet to formally attribute the attack.
上周日，五名男子在基地外被捕。警方未发现任何爆炸物，但从现场缴获了一定数量的燃料。这五人随后获保释，这一决定招致了美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的批评。
Five men were arrested outside the base last Sunday. Police did not find any explosives but recovered a quantity of fuel from the scene. The five were later released on bail, a decision that drew criticism from U.S. President Donald Trump.
当被问及伊朗是否涉及9月27日的事件时，特朗普周四对记者说“看起来像那样”，但他无法“确定地说”。
Asked about potential Iranian involvement in the Sept. 27 incident, Trump told reporters Thursday “it’s looking like that,” but that he could not say so “with confirmation.”
