Hours after the car explosion incident in Liverpool, the British government on Monday raised its terror threat level from substantial to severe, the country’s second-highest terrorism threat level.

Voice of America reports that the threat level was raised after UK police labelled two major attacks including a fatal stabbing of a British lawmaker and the car explosion that occurred in the past month as terrorist incidents.

Upgrading the country’s terrorism level from substantial to severe means the country is bracing up for another terror attack that the British government considers ‘highly likely to occur.
