The United Kingdom (UK) has warned its citizens about possible terror attacks in the United States (US).
In a travel advisory on Friday, the UK said the planned attacks are “very likely” to be random across the country.
On Thursday, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) warned that there were “credible” threats to synagogues in New Jersey, asking that they take security precautions to protect their communities and buildings.
“Stay alert. We will share more information as soon as we can,” the FBI said.
In the advisory note, the UK asked its citizens to remain vigilant even though the US might deploy security agents in public places to forestall possible attacks.
“Attacks could be indiscriminate, including in places visited by foreigners, crowded areas, and transportation networks. You should monitor media reports and be vigilant at all times,” the statement reads.

“The main threat comes from individuals who may have been inspired by terrorist ideology to carry out so-called ‘lone actor’ attacks targeting public events or places. Attacks could take place with little or no notice.
“The US department of homeland security provides public information about credible threats. Expect an increased presence of law enforcement and tight security at public places and events.
“This may include a heavy police presence, additional restrictions and searches on bags, and the use of screening technologies.
“There’s a heightened threat of terrorist attack globally against UK interests and British nationals, from groups or individuals motivated by the conflict in Iraq and Syria. You should be vigilant at this time.”
The warning comes a week after the UK and the US warned of possible terror attacks in Nigeria.
The US also issues a security alert, warning its citizens in South Africa about possible attacks.
