On Monday, the British Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, clarified that a suspected attack plot targeting a US-operated military airbase in England was "almost certainly" instigated by Iran's Revolutionary Guard.

英國首相安迪·伯納姆於週一闡明，一樁針對英格蘭境內由美國運營之軍事空軍基地的疑似襲擊陰謀，「幾乎肯定」係受伊朗革命衛隊所唆使。

Burnham had previously stated that there were strong indications linking Iran to an apparent attack plot last month targeting RAF Fairford, a base habitually used by American bombers to strike Iran in the ongoing war.

伯納姆此前曾表示，有強烈跡象顯示伊朗與上個月針對皇家空軍費爾福德基地的明顯襲擊計劃有所關聯；該基地一貫為美國轟炸機所用，用以在持續戰爭中打擊伊朗。

In the investigation the police have launched into this suspected conspiracy, seven men have so far been arrested; however, all the suspects have been released on bail, and to date no one has been charged.

警方就這起涉嫌陰謀所展開之調查，迄今已逮捕七名男子，惟所有嫌疑人均已獲保釋，且至今無人遭到起訴。

Iran denies any involvement, even though it had previously declared that any base used to launch attacks against its territory constitutes a legitimate target.

伊朗否認涉入其中，儘管其此前曾聲明，任何被用於攻擊其領土的基地均屬合法目標。

Burnham stated plainly to the lawmakers: "I hereby confirm our assessment: this was most probably coordinated and planned inside Iran, and there is virtually no doubt that it was directed by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

伯納姆向議員們闡明：「我謹此確認我方之評估：此事極有可能係於伊朗境內協調謀劃，且幾乎毋庸置疑，乃受伊朗伊斯蘭革命衛隊所指使。

We will absolutely not tolerate threats of this kind against our territory."

吾人絕不容忍此等針對我國領土之威脅。」

On September 27, as armed police and military bomb-disposal experts poured into the rural area in large numbers, dozens of residents near the air base were forced to evacuate and leave their homes.

9月27日，伴隨武裝警察與軍隊拆彈專家大批湧入該鄉村地區，空軍基地附近數十名居民被迫疏散，撤離家園。

The police subsequently claimed that inside three vans linked to the five suspects initially arrested at the scene, they had discovered a substantial quantity of accelerant—petrol—though no explosives were found.

警方其後聲稱，在與最初於現場遭逮捕之五名嫌疑人相關聯的三輛廂式貨車內，他們發現了大量加速劑——汽油，惟並未尋獲任何爆炸物。

All the arrested suspects were in their twenties.

所有被捕嫌疑人均年屆二十餘歲。

The authorities have not disclosed the identity of any individual, though the police revealed that six of them are British nationals, while one holds dual British and Iranian nationality.

當局未公開任何人之身份，惟警方透露，其中六人為英國國民，一人則持英國與伊朗雙重國籍。

On Monday, the British government summoned the Iranian ambassador, who reiterated that Tehran had no involvement in the suspected plot and urged the British side to provide evidence sufficient to substantiate its claims.

週一，英國政府召見伊朗大使，後者重申德黑蘭並未涉入這起疑似陰謀，並敦促英方提供足以佐證其說法的證據。

The United Kingdom went further, asserting that it had added two Iranian nationals to its sanctions list, one of whom is the head of counter-intelligence operations for the Revolutionary Guard.

英國進一步宣稱，已將兩名伊朗籍人士納入制裁名單，其中一人為革命衛隊反間諜行動負責人。

The authorities alleged that the two individuals had engaged in espionage and attacks on behalf of the Iranian government in Europe and the United States.

當局指稱，此二人在歐洲及美國境內代表伊朗政府從事間諜活動與襲擊。

The Pentagon has disclosed that the United States withdrew its bombers last week from RAF Fairford, situated approximately 100 miles (160 kilometres) west of London, and that these aircraft have now been redeployed to their respective home bases.

五角大樓披露，美方已於上週自倫敦以西約100英里（160公里）處之皇家空軍費爾福德基地撤離轟炸機，該批軍機現已重新部署至各自之母基地。

The Trump administration had asserted that it assessed the base as constituting a threat from Iran, and that the authorities in Tehran intended to annihilate an immense number of American military personnel and to destroy as many American military aircraft as possible.

特朗普政府曾聲稱，其評估該基地構成伊朗之威脅，德黑蘭當局意圖殲滅為數至鉅之美軍人員，並摧毀盡可能眾多之美方軍機。

Following Iran's attacks on British interests and its Middle Eastern allies, the British government accordingly granted the United States military permission to use RAF Fairford to carry out what it described as defensive strikes against Iranian missiles and their launch sites.

在伊朗對英國利益及其中東盟友發動襲擊後，英國政府遂准許美軍徵用皇家空軍費爾福德基地，對伊朗導彈及其發射場實施其所謂的防禦性打擊。

Officials assert that local proxies with ties to Iran have orchestrated a series of arson attacks and other assaults targeting the United States, the United Kingdom, and other nations, many of which have been directed at Jewish communities with the aim of sowing fear.

官員們聲稱，與伊朗有所牽連之當地代理人謀劃了一系列針對美國、英國及其他國家的縱火與其他襲擊，其中諸多襲擊以猶太社區為標的，旨在散播恐懼。

British officials have disclosed that, over the six months ending in December 2025, the number of national security cases involving the activities of hostile states — Iran among them — rose by 50 percent.

英國官員披露，截至2025年12月止的六個月間，涉及敵對國家（包括伊朗在內）活動之國家安全案件數量攀升了50%。

On Monday, the Home Secretary, Shabana Mahmood, stated that the incident at RAF Fairford "reflects a far broader trend."

內政大臣沙巴納·馬哈茂德於週一表示，費爾福德空軍基地事件「折射出一股更為宏闊的趨勢」。

She said, "States such as Iran are conducting hostile activities in Britain through proxies.

她說：「諸如伊朗之流的國家，正藉由代理人於英國從事敵對活動。

They either bribe criminals or exploit naive volunteers to attack our country and its citizens, all the while maintaining a posture of plausible deniability."

彼等或賄賂犯罪分子，或利用天真之志願者，攻擊吾國及其公民，同時維持一種看似合理的推諉姿態。」

In a joint statement issued on Monday, the foreign ministers of the United Kingdom, the United States, and roughly twenty or more Western countries condemned Iran's attack on their territory.

於週一發布之聯合聲明中，英國、美國暨約二十餘西方國家之外交部長譴責伊朗對其領土之襲擊。

They stated that the Fairford incident demonstrated Iran's "continued willingness to project its hostile activities beyond its borders through clandestine networks and proxy actors."

渠等表示，費爾福德事件彰顯伊朗「持續願意通過秘密網絡和代理行為者將其敵對活動投射到境外」。

The statement declared: "Let it be known to all those who engage in hostile activities on behalf of Iran or any other state that we will take action to identify, investigate, disrupt, and prosecute such conduct."

該聲明宣稱：「凡代表伊朗或任何其他國家從事敵對活動者，均應知悉：我方必將採取行動，以識別、調查、破壞並起訴此等行徑。」
