The terror group ISIS is planning a “spectacular” attack on British soil, a top police official warned on Monday.
Mark Rowley, Scotland Yard assistant commissioner, told reporters that the terror group’s “natural next step” is to try to attack the United Kingdom following the large-scale assault on Paris last year that left 130 dead.
Rowley said the terrorists want to sow fear by committing massacres on the “Western lifestyle.”
“In recent months we’ve seen a broadening of that, much more plans to attack Western lifestyle, and obviously the Paris attacks in November,” he said, according to the Daily Mirror.
