Two held in Halifax terror raid
Two men have been arrested under terrorism laws in West Yorkshire, police have confirmed.
The men, aged 25 and 29, were held in Halifax at about 0600 GMT on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism.
They were arrested at separate houses in the town. Officers are searching both premises as well as two others in the area and a flat in north London.
They are in custody and will be brought to a London police station later.
A Scotland Yard spokeswoman said: "At approx 6am today in an intelligence-led operation two men were arrested in West Yorkshire under the Terrorism Act 2000.
"They were arrested by officers from the MPS Counter Terrorism Command supported by officers from West Yorkshire Police.
"As part of the same operation, officers from the Counter Terrorism Command today began searching a flat in north London. This search continues."
A spokesman for the West Yorkshire force confirmed that four addresses in the Halifax area were being searched following the arrests.
He stressed the operation was being led by the Metropolitan Police, but West Yorkshire officers would be keeping local people informed.
"High-visibility police will continue to patrol to offer support and reassurance in each of the areas affected," he said.
