US Air Force removes bombers from
British air base after terror threat
WASHINGTON -- The U.S. Air Force has brought home its bombers stationed at a U.S.-run military air base in England used to strike Iran following an investigation into a planned terror attack at the RAF Fairford base.
That threat is according to a Pentagon official who was not authorized to discuss sensitive military movements and spoke Sunday on condition of anonymity. The official said the bombers were redeployed back to their home bases in the United States.
The move comes as President Donald Trump weighs options for his war on Iran -- including new strikes -- as the conflict enters its eighth month.

Serb separatist declares win in Bosnia
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina -- Milorad Dodik has declared victory for his party in Bosnia's election, which was influenced by economic pressures, EU membership prospects, and ethnic tensions.
Dodik, a pro-Russia figure, has dominated the campaign despite being banned from office. His ally, Zeljka Cvijanovic, leads in the race for one of the country's tripartite presidency seats. Dodik claims his party will hold a majority in Republika Srpska's assembly. The election saw low turnout, with only 42% of eligible voters participating. Bosnia's complex political landscape continues to be shaped by ethnic divisions and Dodik's defiance of national governance.
