London Attack Aftermath

London Attack Aftermath

Last week, a man drove a rented car over Westminster Bridge near the Houses of Parliament -- witnesses say he sped up, mounted the pavement, and began hitting pedestrians indiscriminately. The attack lasted 82 seconds and dubbed as the deadliest terrorist attack London had suffered since 2005.

Since then, Metropolitan Police have stepped up security across central London, adding more officers to patrol the streets after five people were killed, including the attacker and left at least 40 people injured.

Today on Current Affairs, BFM explores the aftermath of the London Attack and Britain’s counter-terrorism strategy.

This is a report by Wan Irdina.
