Counter-terror police are investigating three packages containing explosives found at Heathrow Airport, London City Airport and Waterloo station. The “improvised explosive devices” were found in A4 postal bags, the Metropolitan Police said. The Met’s Counter Terrorism Command is treating it as a “linked series” and “keeping an open mind regarding motives.”

Well done, Theresa May and Sadiq Khan.

London security alerts: Heathrow, Waterloo and City Airport devices were bombs, terror police say

Police ask transport hubs across London to be vigilant amid concern there could be other devices

By: Lizzie Dearden, The Independent, March 5, 2019:

Suspicious packages found at Heathrow Airport, London City Airport and Waterloo railway station were parcel bombs, police say.

Counterterror officers are investigating the three devices as linked following a series of evacuations on Tuesday.

One of the packages was opened by office staff at Heathrow Airport and burst into flame, but police said no one was injured.

Scotland Yard has not ruled out the existence of other bombs, and has issued advice to transport hubs across London “to be vigilant for and report suspicious packages to police”.

“The packages – all A4-sized white postal bags containing yellow Jiffy bags – have been assessed by specialist officers to be small improvised explosive devices,” a spokesperson said.

“These devices, at this early stage of the investigation, appear capable of igniting an initially small fire when opened.

“The Met Police Counter Terrorism Command is treating the incidents as a linked series and is keeping an open mind regarding motives.”

Photos of two of the parcels appeared to show identical packages addressed by hand, in the same handwriting and using the same pen and same stamps.

Police called to Waterloo station after reports of suspicious package

Officers were first called to reports of a suspicious package at The Compass Centre, an office building in the grounds of Heathrow Airport, shortly before 10am.

The package was opened by staff at the building, causing the device to initiate and burst into flames, but no one was injured.

Police said the building was evacuated as a precaution and specialist officers “made the device safe”. The building remains closed as enquiries continue and flights at Heathrow have not been affected.

The second device was reported at 11.40am, when British Transport Police were called to investigate a suspicious package in the post room at Waterloo railway station.

The package was not opened and no one was injured. Police made the device safe and have cordoned off a small area outside the stations, with trains continuing to run.

The third device was reported at 12.10pm at offices at Civil Aviation House, an office building next to London City Airport in east London.

The package was not opened but staff were evacuated as a precaution as officers made the device safe. The building has been reopened.

As a precaution, DLR train services to London City Airport were suspended but are now fully operational, and flights were not affected.

Could this be a practice run or warm up for ramadan ding dong? (May 5 2019)

My guess is ISIS is trying to tire out the police with multiple phony attacks. Once the police start treating false alarms like routine, the real attack will come.

‘Keeping an open mind over motives’; it speaks volumes of the politically correct, security agencies mindset. One would suspect, being of the non-politically incorrect variety that it is an ISIS driven plot, not some right-wing machination. As mentioned by JAT, perhaps it is a practice or dry run or by in the middle, an attempt by terrorists to yank the chain of the police until they become more complacent. Whatever the answer, a Muslim linked terror attack will follow in the near future to the utter astonishment of PM May and her Keystone cops.

Most probably only a practice run testing the security at the airports and train stations. The real attack will come soon,and it is likely to dwarf 9/11 or the London Underground slaughter. A large number of trained jihadists have slipped back into the UK and Europe and are hungering for revenge. I suspect they are waiting for the chaos that will accompany a hard Brexit.

Did they include a return address?

The packages were post marked Northern Ireland so they are no doubt an IRA offshoot sending them. Which isn’t to say that there’s no jihadist involvement as the IRA and different radical moslem organisations were bed fellows for a very long time.
For the two to team together now would seem like a logical strategy.
NO SURRENDER!????????????????????????????

See what happens when you invite Muslims to become citizens? They revert back to Shari held beliefs that all non Muslims are infidels.

Yep testing the response!
These imbeciles are cowards and will attack innocent civilians who are not aware of the danger until it’s too late. People become complacent and let their guard down and then they are targets. We need to treat everyone that looks strangely, is carrying something, is nervous or dressed too heavy or strangely as a potential threat. These terrorists are like rodents who scamper around in the darkness and devour anything they can and infest their streets and towns with disease and sickness!
It’s time they were fed RatSak and we stopped this threat in its tracks. Every living creature has an enemy and they are no different so time to find theirs and release it!
