IRANIAN Terror Plot FOILED: UK Police Heroically Stop Potential Attack
— British police arrested four Iranian men and another suspect in a major counterterrorism operation over the weekend. Authorities believe these men were planning an attack on a specific target somewhere in England. The government called this one of the most important national security actions in years.
The Metropolitan Police detained suspects aged 29 to 46 under the Terrorism Act. Four of them are confirmed as Iranian citizens, while officers are still checking the nationality of the fifth man.
Police searched homes across London, Manchester, and Swindon. In Rochdale, neighbors saw armed officers break into a house and arrest a man using force.
All five suspects remain in custody for questioning. No charges have been made yet as investigations continue at several locations.
