British police said Monday that five men arrested near an airbase used by the United States were released on bail, as Washington asserted that a "foreign actor" was involved in a suspected bomb plot, according to a report from France 24.
US President Donald Trump, speaking in Washington, said he was "surprised" that the men had been released, the report said.
The release came as British Prime Minister Andy Burnham announced an emergency meeting of top officials to ensure they have "the full picture," according to France 24.
The report did not specify the evidence behind the men's arrest, the nature of the alleged "foreign actor" involvement, or provide additional detail on the investigation, which France 24 described as still ongoing.
The report did not name the airbase involved or say when the original arrests took place.
