Trump says US moved bombers from UK after ‘some threats’

US President Donald Trump says that the United States had withdrawn all B-1 bombers from the British airbase of RAF Fairford because of “some threats,” without saying what they were.

“There were some threats, and rather than tempting the enemy — we’ll capture the enemy and beat the enemy, but why should we leave them there? So we moved them around a little bit, not very far,” Trump tells reporters at the White House.
