Scotland Yard has disrupted 13 terrorist networks in London in the last financial year.
During the 12 month period, there was an average of a suspected terrorist incident in London every other day.
There were 181 incidents, slightly up on the previous year’s figure of 177 and police took 4,346 calls on the anti-terrorism hotline.
The figures were revealed in a document prepared for the Metropolitan Police Authority.
Its author Supt Neil Haynes, from Scotland Yard’s Specialist Operations unit, said disrupting a network could involve several features.
“Some cases may result in the foiling of a planned major bombing campaign, others may reduce the funding or resources available to mount such an attack,” he said.
