> The United States has withdrawn all bombers deployed at RAF Fairford and returned them to home stations. Washington gave no reason, but the move follows a suspicious-vehicles incident near the Gloucestershire base that prompted a counter-terrorism investigation. Sources say it was an operational military decision rather than a political one.
