The United States has withdrawn all of its bombers from RAF Fairford, a British military base, and returned them to their home stations in America, a US department official confirmed on Sunday.
The US has not provided a reason for the withdrawal. The move comes after an incident near the base on 27 September, when police were alerted to three vehicles described as suspicious.
