The US Air Force “responded to suspected unauthorized drone activity” over a British air base hosting American troops.
“No personnel, aircraft or infrastructure were affected” in the incident at RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk, England, a US Air Force spokesperson says in a statement.
“We continue to work closely with our host nation counterparts to ensure the safety and security of our US service members, US and host nation civilians, contractors, and all of our families. Protecting our shared community is a joint responsibility, and we encourage everyone to support this effort by reporting any unusual or suspicious activity to local authorities,” the statement adds.
