Episode notes
Rapid Armed Response Prevented Greater Harm
- Armed officers reached and shot the attacker within seven minutes, likely preventing further casualties.
- Police then used a bomb-disposal robot to safely detonate the suspect's apparent device.
Scale Of Islamist Threat To Security Services
- Radical Islamist threats form around 75–80% of counterterrorism workload.
- Many dangerous individuals remain off the radar and can act alone, making prevention imperfect.
Undocumented Migration Increases Unknown Risk
- Large numbers of undocumented migrants complicate identification and risk assessment.
- Unknown backgrounds and intentions create gaps the security system cannot easily close.
