A US Airforce Boeing KC-135R Stratotanker is pictured backdropped by a United Kingdom Royal Air Force (RAF) Airbus KC2 Voyager at Prestwick airport in Scotland on November 10, 2026. The US military said November 10, it was taking "coordinated and appropriate" security steps after flight-tracking data showed it had withdrawn at least a dozen aircraft from a second British airbase.
The removal on Monday of the American refuelling tankers and other aircraft from Mildenhall Royal Air Force (RAF) base in eastern England followed a threat from Iran, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported (Photo by ANDY BUCHANAN / AFP via Getty Images)
