Derbyshire Constabulary said in a social media post that the evacuations were done as a precaution and that the evacuation zone was put in place after officers executed a warrant based «on intelligence about materials» at an address on Vulcan Street.
The two suspects who were arrested were both men, one in his 40s and one in his 50s, according to the Derbyshire Constabulary. The suspects are in law enforcement custody. They have not been identified further by authorities.

Reino Unido inició misiones aéreas defensivas en apoyo de los Emiratos Árabes y derribó drones iraníes en varias zonas de Medio Oriente

Aviones de combate del Reino Unido iniciaron misiones aéreas defensivas en apoyo de Emiratos Árabes Unidos y derribaron drones en distintas zonas de Medio Oriente en medio de la guerra regional, informó el lunes el Ministerio de Defensa británico.
El ministro de Defensa, John Healey, confirmó ante el Parlamento la participación de cazas británicos en operaciones de defensa aérea. “El Reino Unido está realizando misiones aéreas defensivas en apoyo de los Emiratos Árabes Unidos”, declaró el funcionario.
Healey indicó que aviones Typhoon interceptaron y destruyeron dos drones durante las operaciones. “Los tifones derribaron con éxito dos drones, uno sobre Jordania y el segundo en dirección a Bahréin”, afirmó.
El anuncio coincidió con la llegada de más bombarderos estadounidenses B-52 a la base aérea británica de Fairford, en el suroeste de Inglaterra. Periodistas de AFP observaron el lunes el aterrizaje de nuevos aparatos, después de que el primero llegara el viernes.
La base de Fairford constituye uno de los puntos clave que el Reino Unido puso a disposición de Estados Unidos para operaciones vinculadas al conflicto. La otra instalación es la base de Diego García, situada en el océano Índico.
Según explicó Healey, el gobierno británico autorizó el uso de ambas instalaciones para misiones concretas de carácter defensivo. El ministro señaló que estas operaciones tienen como objetivo neutralizar misiles iraníes en su punto de lanzamiento.
Mientras Londres refuerza su actividad militar en la región, el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores anunció medidas de seguridad para su personal diplomático en los Emiratos Árabes Unidos. La cancillería comunicó que retirará temporalmente a los familiares del personal de la embajada.
El organismo explicó que la decisión responde a una medida preventiva en medio de la escalada regional. A pesar de esa medida, el gobierno británico informó que sus representaciones diplomáticas en el país continuarán funcionando con normalidad.
Las dos embajadas británicas en Emiratos, ubicadas en Abu Dhabi y Dubái, mantendrán sus operaciones. Las autoridades no anunciaron la suspensión de servicios consulares.
El conflicto también generó problemas de transporte para ciudadanos británicos en la región. Se estima que miles de personas del Reino Unido permanecen en Emiratos Árabes Unidos debido a la interrupción de vuelos comerciales provocada por la guerra.
El ministro Healey informó al Parlamento que más de 170.000 personas registraron su presencia en Medio Oriente ante el gobierno británico. El registro forma parte del sistema de asistencia a ciudadanos en zonas de crisis. El funcionario indicó además que tres vuelos chárter despegaron hasta ahora para evacuar personas desde la región.
El Reino Unido también envió medios militares adicionales al Mediterráneo oriental. Helicópteros Wildcat y Merlin llegaron a Chipre como parte de las medidas de refuerzo adoptadas por Londres.
Healey anunció además el despliegue de un buque de guerra con capacidad de defensa aérea. El HMS Dragon zarpará hacia el Mediterráneo oriental “en los próximos días”, afirmó el ministro. La decisión surgió tras críticas del gobierno chipriota, que cuestionó la velocidad de la respuesta británica para reforzar la defensa de la isla.
En paralelo, el gobierno británico negó que exista una decisión para desplegar un portaaviones en la región. Downing Street rechazó versiones sobre el envío del HMS Prince of Wales al escenario del conflicto.
Un portavoz del primer ministro Keir Starmer señaló que el buque permanece en estado de alerta. “El HMS Prince of Wales siempre ha estado en máxima alerta”, declaró.
El funcionario explicó que el Ministerio de Defensa tomó medidas para aumentar la preparación del portaaviones. “El Ministerio de Defensa está aumentando la preparación del portaaviones, reduciendo el tiempo que tardaría en zarpar para cualquier despliegue, pero no se ha tomado ninguna decisión sobre su despliegue”, afirmó.

FBI subpoenas 2020 Arizona voting docs as federal push into election administration widens

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
An Arizona state lawmaker revealed Monday that federal authorities subpoenaed him for records related to the 2020 election, marking the second publicly confirmed jurisdiction the Department of Justice is investigating over the matter.
Arizona Senate President Warren Petersen, a Republican, said in a social media post he received the subpoena for material related to the state Senate’s 2020 audit last week and complied with it.
«Late last week I received and complied with a federal grand jury subpoena for records relating to the Arizona State Senate’s 2020 audit of Maricopa County,» Petersen wrote. «The FBI has the records. Any other report is fake news.»
The request represents an expansion of a federal probe tied to 2020 after the DOJ initially targeted Fulton County, Georgia. The development also comes as President Donald Trump has grown increasingly outspoken about election security in the lead-up to the 2026 midterms, renewing his attention on disputes stemming from the last presidential race.

Petersen made the revelation after President Donald Trump shared a Just the News report about the subpoena on Truth Social, writing, «Great!!! FBI secretly seizes election records from Arizona’s largest county as voting probe expands.»
Multiple U.S. officials confirmed the election probe to Fox News, saying the DOJ is looking at a large tranche of Arizona data from 2020 and 2024.

The White House directed Fox News Digital to the FBI on Monday when asked for comment. The FBI declined to comment.
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes, an elected Democrat, said the new investigation was based on claims that courts and state investigators have proven wrong.
«What the Trump administration appears to be pursuing now is not a legitimate law enforcement inquiry,» Mayes said in a statement. «It is the weaponization of federal law enforcement in service of crackpots and lies.»

The subpoena comes as the president increasingly focuses on election security ahead of the 2026 midterms, telling Congress in a social media post on Sunday that he will not sign any legislation into law until it passes the SAVE America Act.
The bill’s primary purpose is to require voters nationwide to show physical identification to prove citizenship to vote in federal elections. The version of the bill Trump is pushing would also ban mail-in ballots except for the military and in other extenuating circumstances.

Maricopa, Arizona’s most populous county, was a hotbed for accusations of voter fraud in 2020. Fulton County, Georgia, faced similar accusations, with the DOJ launching a separate investigation into the 2020 election earlier this year.
Trump lost Arizona in 2020 by about 0.3 percentage points. The president refused to concede, and his legal team brought a series of lawsuits alleging vote-counting irregularities, but none were successful.
