00:00I would like to clarify a few points around the investigation.
00:04Firstly, a police response was activated in the early hours of Sunday morning
00:10due to a range of information that we received.
00:14This included a call from the member of public
00:17about several vehicles acting suspiciously close to RAF Fairford.
00:23Now those vehicles, as I explained yesterday,
00:26have been subject to extensive examination
00:28with the support of military assets and forensic experts
00:32and we can confirm that no improvised explosive devices have been found.
00:37We have found a quantity of an accelerant, petrol,
00:42and we have recovered that as part of our investigation.
00:46As part of our investigation, we have also searched properties in London
00:50and those searches are now finished
00:52and we're also now reducing the investigative scenes around RAF Fairford
00:57and we expect them to be closed completely tomorrow.
01:00You'll also be aware that yesterday we released five men on police bail.
01:06Now they remain under investigation
01:08and they must adhere to very strict conditions.
01:12It's really important that you understand that the safety of the public
01:16is at the forefront of our investigative decision making
01:19and this was certainly the case yesterday.
01:23But I would like to reiterate that this is an investigative decision
01:26and one which is grounded in experience and strategy.
