An asylum seeker in Britain was arrested after committing a terror attack, according to British media. However, details on the attack are scarce as according to the Telegraph details have been "highly restricted for legal reasons".

However, some details have been published such as that after his arrest, the suspect told police that the attack had been done because "Israel had killed children in Gaza."

British politicians asked why the details of the attack had not been released, a security source at the Telegraph said "They may be downplaying it so that they don’t have repeat attacks or copycat attacks."

Reports that British Ministers also fear a political backlash if the migration crisis in the English Channel is seen to undermine security, may be contributing to the lack of information.
