Up to 5,000 soldiers will be deployed on the streets amid fears that the Manchester suicide bomber had accomplices preparing further attacks, Theresa May has announced.[B]Acer Helpline Number UK[/B]
For the first time in 10 years,
the Prime Minister said the terror threat had been raised to the highest possible level, from severe to critical, meaning an attack is “expected imminently”.
Mrs May also announced that troops would replace police officers at set-piece events including sports venues and concerts.[B]Acer Support Number UK[/B]
It will be the first time since 2003 – when the Government reacted to a plot to bring down an airliner – that troops are deployed on the streets.
With the FA Cup final this weekend, Mrs May acted on the advice of the Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre after chairing two meetings of the Cobra emergency committee.
Security will also be stepped up at major public events and terrorist targets such as railway stations and airports.
