WASHINGTON — An Iran-backed operative orchestrated a foiled terror plot targeting US military aircraft in England from an American prison cell — using “coded messages” in phone calls to relatives in Iraq, according to a federal indictment secured Tuesday. Mohammad al-Saadi, a dual Iranian-Iraqi citizen, was arrested in Turkey in May and transferred to the US to face charges related to almost 20 other terrorist attacks in Europe. He used his time behind bars to plot against US forces at Royal Air Force Base Fairford, according to the superseding indictment in the Southern District of New York.
