New York Inmate Allegedly Plotted Attack On British Air Base Using Coded Calls

A New York-based inmate, Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood al-Saadi, allegedly used coded family calls to coordinate a terror plot against the RAF Fairford air base in England. The indictment, unsealed on Tuesday, claims the dual Iranian-Iraqi national facilitated communication with Iranian operatives while held at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn. Prosecutors allege the network targeted Jewish communities and military installations housing American service members. The investigation intensified after suspicious vehicles were spotted near the British base on September 27. Two other suspects, Mohsen Mohajeri and Mohammad Ali al-Hassani, remain at large and are not currently in US custody. US officials stated that the <b>Iran-backed network</b> is linked to nearly 20 planned attacks across Europe and the United States.
