(BBC) Searches are continuing at a number of addresses after five men were arrested on Saturday over an alleged terror plot in the UK.
Home Office minister Dan Jarvis said hundreds of officers were carrying out forensic investigations and collecting evidence at different sites across the country during a Commons statement on Tuesday.
The men, who are Iranian nationals, are suspected of plotting to target a specific premises, Jarvis told MPs — though said he could not disclose where.
He described the arrests as “some of the largest counter-state threats and counter-terrorism actions that we have seen in recent times.”
