British police have become concerned that weapons from the Ukrainian war could reach the UK and find their way into the hands of terrorists.
Metropolitan Police Deputy Assistant Commissioner Matt Twist said that whatever the outcome of this "awful conflict", it is clear that "there will be huge amounts of weapons and ammunition in the region, which will take some time to stabilise and normalise when the phase of outright war ends".
Despite the risk, Mr Twist said police and security partners, are doing everything they can to ensure that weapons "from this or any other conflict zone do not find their way to the UK.”
