British police have detained two Latvian citizens. They are suspected of unlawfully entering a Royal Air Force base in Cambridgeshire, in southeast England.

What is known so far

The available information is limited. Two people have been detained, both are Latvian nationals, and they are suspected of entering a military site without authorisation. The site is a Royal Air Force base in Cambridgeshire.

The source does not give the names or ages of the detainees, or the circumstances of the entry. It also does not say what their purpose was, whether anything at the base was damaged, or what legal steps are expected next.

Suspicion is not a charge

Being detained on suspicion does not mean guilt has been established. The investigation and the decisions of law enforcement authorities will determine how the case proceeds and whether any charges are brought against the two people.

This report will be updated if new information emerges about the detainees' status or the circumstances of the incident.
