MolesworthPolice found 2 Latvian men inside a US intelligence base.
The base houses US intelligence centres for Europe and Africa and a NATO hub.
A patrol spotted an abandoned vehicle Wednesday night, and police found a small fence breach before arresting both men.
Commander Helen Flanagan of Counter Terrorism Policing London says nothing suggests a link to the 27 September Fairford incident.
Police have not disclosed the men’s motives, and enquiries will now focus on why they were there.
