Former MI6 chief Sir John Sawers warned that the death of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar could lead to an uptick in Islamic terrorism in the UK. Sinwar, responsible for the October 7 attacks, was killed by Israeli troops. Sawers expressed concern that new leadership in Hezbollah and Hamas might shift focus from Israel to international targets, including Western countries. He urged UK intelligence and police to remain vigilant as the situation in the Middle East escalates.
