US Air Force KC 135-RT Stratotankers at Sofia Airport
Reuters – Aug 22, 2026
Two U.S. tanker aircraft have left Bulgaria’s Bezmer air base, Bulgaria’s defence minister said on Saturday, nearly a month after their deployment in the Balkan country angered Iran.
The United States, which has been at war with Iran since February 28, requested their temporary deployment under an agreement governing the joint use of military facilities.
Iran said at the time that their deployment would constitute complicity in “aggression and war crimes”, a charge that Sofia dismissed.
The two U.S. Air Force KC-135 planes left Bulgaria on Friday, Defence Minister Dimitar Stoyanov told reporters.
The U.S. authorities could not be immediately reached for comment.
The deployment of the aircraft, approved by Bulgaria’s parliament on July 22, led to protests by nearby residents who feared the planes would be attacked by Iranian missiles and drones.
Stoyanov said all the aircraft’s flights during their temporary deployment had been training missions over allied countries and that Bulgaria had “no information about direct threats to our national security.”
“We are working in full coordination with the U.S. government and had prior information, which is why all our decisions were well-founded,” he said.

“The distance between Bulgaria and Iran is 2,724 kilometers (1,693 miles).”
What? Did the eye-rainians threaten to send them a strongly-worded letter?
I demand better baiting!
I see it as the cowardly US and the especially cowardly Trump trying to force more nations onto their side through nefarious means.

Andy Burnham’s Government is preparing to send “mansion tax police” into private homes across England to decide whether owners must pay thousands of pounds under a new surcharge. HMRC valuation agents will have the power to demand entry to properties to check what they are worth and therefore liable for the levy. Homeowners who refuse an inspector entry will commit a criminal offence and face a fine of up to £200. Those who fail to provide requested information without a reasonable excuse risk a fine of up to £500.
A spokesman said we all have a duty to help fund the migrants coming to our shores

‘Madness!’ Green Party considers stripping police of Tasers and pepper spray under crime plan
Story by Peter Stevens • 1h • 3 min read
The Green Party will consider an official policy of stripping police of Tasers and pepper spray under a new crime plan.
The party’s crime and justice working group has drawn up a radical motion which would also scrap Prevent, the government’s counterterrorism programme.
It also called for the end of police presence in schools and to move money away from police and prisons.
The Greens would also aim for the “closure of all prisons through systemic obsolescence” if the motion passes.
It is now being put through the party’s formal policy process before its conference in October, according to documents seen by The Times.
Political opponents said the proposal raises fresh questions about the Green’s commitment to protecting the public’s safety, as Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp described the proposals as the party’s “latest madness”.
Continue reading Zack Polanski, leader of the Green Party, claimed the policy was just being considered.
