Britain braces for 10 simultaneous terror attacks across the country

Tuesday March 22, 2016

Britain's anti-terror security has been ramped up amid fears the country could face as many as ten simultaneous ISIS attacks. Officers of the Metropolitan police and SAS troops have been put on standby in the event of a Paris-style attack and the National Crime Agency has ordered a crackdown on firearms.

Despite multiple threats from terrorists in Syria, an unnamed government minister said the UK was well prepared for such an attack.

He said: "We used to plan for three simultaneous attacks but Paris has shown that you need to be ready for more than that. We are ready if someone tries with seven, eight, nine, ten."
