But officials insist the base is safe. Six men have been arrested by counter-terrorism police, but they've all been released on bail. The US Vice President JD Vance said the move was a precaution.Also in the programme: The Saudi backed government in Yemen says it's launched an offensive to retake the capital, Sanaa, from the Iran-backed Houthi movement; Spanish PM Sánchez calls early election after housing protests; and an American neuroscientist and two German biophysicists have been awarded this year's Nobel Prize in Medicine for revealing how nerve cells shape memories and feelings.(File photo dated 29/09/26 of a United States Air Force Rockwell B-1 Lancer Bomber at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire.
