'More than a coincidence': UK terror police investigate Heathrow fire as experts suspect Russian sabotage
Friday, 21 March 2025 British counter-terrorism police are investigating a massive fire at an electrical substation near Heathrow Airport, speculating possible Russian sabotage. The fire disrupted over 1,300 flights, affecting nearly 291,000 passengers. Experts suggest Russian involvement, hinting at parallels with previous incidents. Authorities have not found conclusive evidence, but MI5 is reportedly scrutinising the incident owing to national security concerns.
Counter-terrorism police are leading an investigation into a fire in Hayes, west London that led to thousands of passengers at Heathrow airport being hit by flight cancellations and power cuts.
