伦敦——英国军情五处负责人表示，伊朗正试图袭击英国的军事设施，9月针对美军运营的空军基地的疑似袭击阴谋“并非孤立事件”。英国国内安全机构负责人肯·麦卡勒姆称，德黑兰正寻求在英国加大攻击力度，目标已超出传统的反对伊斯兰当局的伊朗人。
LONDON — The head of MI5 says Iran is trying to hit military sites in the U.K. and the suspected plot to attack a U.S.-run military air base in September is “not unique.”Ken McCallum, who leads the U.K.’s domestic security service, said Tehran is seeking to intensify its attacks in Britain beyond the traditional targets of Iranians opposed to the Islamic authorities.
这其中包括英国指称由伊朗代理人实施的针对犹太场所的纵火和破坏袭击。
That has included arson and sabotage attacks on Jewish sites that Britain says were carried out by Iranian proxies.
麦卡勒姆表示，今年的另一“重大转变”是伊朗企图攻击更硬的目标，如军事设施。他说，费尔福德皇家空军基地的事件“并非孤立，不仅在英国，世界各地都有其他类似案例”。
McCallum said another “major shift this year has been Iranian ambitions to come at harder targets, like military sites.”The incident at RAF Fairford “is not unique. There have been other examples, not just in the U.K. but around the world,” McCallum said.
