2 more A-10s landing at Lakenheath. They are from a different squadron (74th) from the other 18 that passed through the base earlier this month (124 & 127 FW).
There are probably going to be more arriving in the next few days.

📢 ONE WEEK TO GO

US heavy bombers are still in Britain, poised to once again attack Iran. Join us at RAF Fairford next Saturday to demand that Keir Starmer shuts down the bases and sends the bombers home!

“Nuclear deterrence keeps us safe.”
“It’s purely defensive.”
“Everyone believes in it.”

These myths prop up a dangerous system that keeps us all under nuclear threat. Challenge them with our 5 quick explainers: https://www.icanw.org/deterrence_myths

Screen grab of sections of Guardian article by Richard Norton-Taylor. Text reads: UK’s armed forces are in a sad state – and they have only themselves to blame.The MoD shows little sign of learning from its mistakes – no wonder the Treasury is reluctant to agree to its demands.

A great response to the recent calls to cut welfare spending to fuel Britain's war drive.

Nuclear weapons cost up to 25% of the MoD's budget - with many projects behind schedule (with rising costs) or uncosted (F-35A). We need more scrutiny not less!

Former NATO head pressures Starmer to cut welfare to fuel war spending - CND A former British head of NATO and co-author of the 2025 Strategic Defence Review has called on Keir Starmer to cut welfare spending further to fund Britain’s war drive.

Making further cuts to public services – at a time when we are facing even greater attacks on living standards due to the US illegal war on Iran – would be disastrous.

Every day, children are killed or injured in conflicts like Gaza and Ukraine, a tragedy made worse by the states behind the violence being armed with nuclear weapons.

In a nuclear war, children would suffer most. Learn more: https://www.icanw.org/children

The 2026 Nuclear Weapons Ban Monitor reveals a worrying trend: while most states push for disarmament, some are expanding their reliance on nuclear weapons, raising risks of escalation and accidents.

DEMO ANNOUNCEMENT: CND is calling a protest at RAF Fairford on Saturday 25 April at 12 noon - join us! Fairford is central to Trump's illegal war on Iran. With a fragile ceasefire under threat, join this critical protest to tell Starmer to end Trump's use of British bases now.

A fragile ceasefire is being trashed. Israel has killed hundreds in Lebanon. Trump's veiled nuclear threats against Iran shows why he must be stopped. Britain must act now. #Sanctions #ArmsEmbargo #BreakwithUS #HandsOffIran Register: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_wJFE...

Our report on @cnduk.bsky.social website

CND condemns Israel’s brutal escalation in Lebanon. This is a breach of the ceasefire agreement with Iran and the US. European leaders, including Britain, support Lebanon as part of the ceasefire. We need action. End all arms sales to Israel. Britain must break with the US now.

We welcome the two-week ceasefire between Iran and the US. Tonight's protest at Downing Street will no longer go ahead. Please read our joint statement with Stop the War.

Main gates of RAF Lakenheath were shut down by peace protestors for 6 hours this morning.
Another gate was shut for 4 hours.
14 arrests.
No war on Iran!
Stop the genocide in Gaza!
No Nukes!

Projectile hits near Iran’s Bushehr nuclear plant, killing one: IAEA Tehran says it is the fourth attack near the nuclear plant amid the US-Israel war on Iran.

‼️ICAN condemns another US/Israel attack on the Beshehr nuclear power plant - such attacks are reckless and explicitly banned under international law - as our ED @melissaparke01.bsky.social , has said this aggression has to stop before there is a nuclear disaster.

We are horrified by Trump’s veiled threats to use nuclear weapons against the people of Iran

Hundreds joined Peace Campers today to blockade the main gate of Lakenheath airbase where a fighter jet shot down over Iran is believed to have flown out from.

Hundreds of peace campaigners shut down the main gates of Iran war base, Lakenheath airbase, in Suffolk for 3hrs today. Two people were arrested for refusing to move from the road.
@xrebellionuk @peacepledgeunion @caatuk @stwuk @worldbeyondwar

West Midlands CND is on its way to the Peace Camp!

Reports that Iran has shot down a US F35 fighter jet from RAF Fairford is more shocking evidence of British bases being used in Trump's illegal war. Starmer must end use of all UK bases now!
