Call for government 'transparency' on nuclear bombs

Campaigners have called for government "transparency" amid reports the United States Air Force has moved nuclear weapons to a Suffolk airbase, with specific concerns about the deployment. The flight data of a specialist C-17A Globemaster indicates it traveled from New Mexico to RAF Lakenheath last week, raising alarms over nuclear readiness. The situation marks a potential return of nuclear weapons to Lakenheath, the first since 2008, with platform preparations for the B61-12 bomb being evident based on recent documentation and expert analysis.
