The UK's terror threat level has been raised from severe to critical, meaning an attack is considered imminent.

Prime Minister Theresa May announced the decision from Downing Street.

The move means that military personnel could be deployed to support armed police officers.

"It is a possibility that we cannot ignore that there a wider group of individuals linked to this attack," Mrs May said.

She said that the threat level was under constant review.

"The change in the threat level means there will be additional support available to the police as they work to keep us safe," she said.
