华盛顿，10月6日——两名不愿透露姓名的美国官员周二对路透社表示，由于怀疑伊朗策划了一场针对英国重要空军基地的复杂无人机袭击阴谋，美国决定将B-1轰炸机从该基地撤出。
WASHINGTON, Oct 6 - A suspected plot involving Iran to launch a complex drone attack on a key British airbase led the United States to remove its B-1 bomber aircraft from the base, two US officials told Reuters on Tuesday, speaking on condition of anonymity.
伊朗方面坚决否认与英国费尔福德空军基地发生的所谓阴谋有任何关联。该基地是美国轰炸机在欧洲的主要驻扎地。英国警方周二称，他们已在伦敦逮捕一名22岁的英国男子，怀疑其涉嫌为实施恐怖活动做准备，此案正是针对该阴谋嫌疑案的调查内容之一。
Iran has denied any involvement in any alleged plot at RAF Fairford, the preferred European base for US bombers. British police said on Tuesday they had arrested a 22-year-old British man in London on suspicion of preparation of terrorist acts as part of their investigation into the suspected plot.
美国欧洲司令部发言人称不予置评，并表示："讨论情报相关事宜并不妥当，我们也不会透露具体的部队防护措施。"
A spokesperson for the US military's European Command declined to comment, saying: "It is inappropriate to discuss matters of intelligence, and we will not discuss specific force protection measures."
该发言人称："多次行动已证明，包括B-1、B-2及B-52在内的各类美国轰炸机均具备全球精确打击能力——即便行动起点和终点均在美国本土，它们也能随时完成打击任务。"}{
"As demonstrated across multiple operations, America's bombers, including B-1s, B-2s, and B-52s — can deliver precision global strike capabilities – including through operations that launch and recover from the continental United States – anywhere, anytime," the spokesperson said.
