NATO officials said Wednesday that ISIS wants to attack Britain with nuclear or chemical weapons, according to reports. It came at the end of the two-day Security and Counter Terror Expo 2016, a joint conference in London by NATO and the European Union to discuss the war on terror. A senior NATO official, Dr. Jamie Shea, said that there is concrete intelligence information that terrorist organizations are attempting to obtain radioactive, biological and chemical materials in order to carry out attacks in Europe. “We know that terrorists are trying to acquire these substances,” he said.  

Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
