The head of the United Kingdom's domestic security service has issued a stark warning about the resurgent threat posed by ISIS and al Qaeda. In a rare public address, the Director General of MI5 highlighted the evolving landscape of terrorism, emphasizing the increasing reliance on children and the internet by terrorist groups.
According to MI5, more than a third of recent priority investigations have involved connections to overseas terrorist organizations, with ISIS showing renewed efforts to export terrorism. Alarmingly, the agency has seen a three-fold increase in the involvement of minors in terrorism-related activities since 2021.
