British police are to release on bail the five men arrested in connection with an alleged terror plot against a US-operated air base in the United Kingdom.

The men were detained on Sunday close to the Royal Air Force facility near Fairford in southwest England.

The air base has been used by the United States during its war with Iran.

DW correspondent Birgit Maass reports on the latest developments in the case.
