CBC News || May 23, 2006

Seven people were arrested Wednesday in a series of anti-terrorism raids by 500 police in several parts of England.

The raids involved five police forces and were aimed at people suspected of being involved in planning attacks outside of the United Kingdom, police said.

The British Home Office said that five of the seven being held were foreign nationals.

Properties were searched with warrants that had been issued under U.K.'s terrorism act.

The police forces involved included London's Metropolitan Police, Birmingham's West Midlands Police and Cleveland Police in northeast England.

The raids were jointly organized with MI5, the British security service, and were the result of an investigation that has been going on for months, the BBC reported.
