UK raises threat level to severe as attack on Liverpool Women’s Hospital declared a terror incidentAn explosion outside Liverpool Women’s Hospital on Remembrance Sunday has been declared a terror incident by police, the BBC has reported. This comes as the UK’s Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre (JTAC) on Monday, raised the UK National Threat Level from SUBSTANTIAL, meaning an attack is likely, to SEVERE, meaning an attack is highly likely. The cabbie, named locally as David Perry, was declared a hero by Liverpool Mayor Joanne Anderson for locking the suspect inside the vehicle. Subsequently, the UK terror threat level has been raised to severe. “The fare – a man – had asked to be taken to Liverpool Women’s Hospital, which was about 10 minutes away,” he added.
