Two Suspected Iranian Spies Arrested Near UK’s Nuclear Submarine Base
Two individuals linked to Iran were arrested outside HM Naval Base Clyde in Scotland. They tried to gain entry to the site that houses Britain’s nuclear deterrent submarines. Armed officers detained a 34-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman after security staff turned them away. Their vehicle remained nearby, prompting searches by sniffer dogs and Ministry of Defence Police. The base was briefly locked down under the Official Secrets Act. Officials say the matter is still under investigation. The arrests come amid rising global tensions with Iran. Authorities warn of potential espionage or sabotage following recent military escalations in the Middle East.
