U.S. indictment alleges plot at RAF Fairford
Published November 10, 2026
Federal prosecutors in New York announced an eight-count superseding indictment against three defendants on November 10. Prosecutors allege that the defendants acted in support of Kata’ib Hizballah and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, both designated by the United States as foreign terrorist organizations.
The indictment alleges involvement in nearly 20 attacks and attempted attacks across Europe and the United States, as well as a September 2026 plot involving RAF Fairford, a British base where U.S. forces were stationed. The indictment presents allegations. The defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
The U.S. charges are separate from the British National Security Act charges announced in October against two other defendants in the Fairford investigation.
