Two of the bases are located in Suffolk, while the third is in Norfolk, all leased by the U.S. from the UK.

A British Ministry of Defence spokesperson emphasized that authorities take such threats “very seriously” and maintain “robust measures” at military sites. “We support the U.S. Air Force’s response,” the spokesperson added.
