MI5 warns of rising threats from Russia, Iran, China, and extremists, citing increased espionage, plots, and radicalization.
MI5 Director General Ken McCallum warned of a rising security threat in the UK, citing a 35% increase in investigations into state-sponsored activities by Russia, Iran, and China.
He highlighted numerous surveillance plots linked to Russia, over 20 Iran-backed potentially lethal plots, and China’s cyber espionage and influence operations.
Terrorism threats remain substantial, with 19 late-stage attack plots disrupted since 2020 and a recent Manchester synagogue attack killing two.
McCallum emphasized growing risks from Islamist extremists, right-wing groups, and online radicalization, noting that one in five recent terrorism arrests involved minors.
He called for early intervention, cross-agency collaboration, and vigilance against evolving threats, including the misuse of artificial intelligence.
