The US Department of Justice (DOJ) has announced charges against three Iran-backed operatives that it alleges were involved in a string of plots in the United States and Europe.

The DOJ said Iranian agents most recently “orchestrated a terrorist plot at an air force base in the United Kingdom”., saying they were involved in the major incident in September near RAF Fairford in the UK, where US armed forces were stationed.

Report says that a dual Iranian-Iraqi national, is accused of communicating with contacts in the UK from a prison in New York where he is awaiting trial on previous charges, while the other two are accused of doing the same from Iran.

Iran however has denied any involvement in the RAF Fairford incident, which came to light when suspicious vans were reported near the base.
