The chief of Britain’s counter terror unit has warned of the rising threat of an attack on UK soil sparked by the conflict in the Middle East. Head of counter terror policing Matt Jukes issued the warning as he said the world was facing “a moment of radicalisation”.He described a picture where the world is as “dangerous and unstable” as it has been in his three years at the helm. He warned that the main threat was from a “low sophistication, lone actor” attempting a terror attack. He gave an update on the terror threat during a review of the counter terror unit’s operation during 2023.
