Four people have been charged over a break-in at RAF Brize Norton last month, when military planes were damaged, Counter Terrorism Policing South East say.
Amy Gardiner-Gibson, 29, and Jony Cink, 24, both of no fixed abode, and Daniel Jeronymides-Norie, 35, and Lewie Chiaramello, 22, both from London, will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court later on Thursday.
They have been charged with conspiracy to enter a prohibited place knowingly for a purpose prejudicial to the safety or interests of the UK and conspiracy to commit criminal damage.
Damage worth £7m was caused to two Voyager aircraft, when planes were sprayed with paint during the break-in on 20 June.
A woman, 41, arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender was released on bail until 19 September and a man, 23, was freed without charge.
The Crown Prosecution Service will be submitting to the court that the offences with which the other four are charged have a “terrorist connection”, Counter Terrorism Policing South East said in a statement.
A group called Palestine Action said it was behind the incident at the airbase.
On Wednesday, MPs voted in favour of the government’s move to ban it as a terrorist organisation.
