Feb 20 - Threat Level For Gibraltar Remains Unchanged

Written by YGTV Team on 20 February 2019.

A meeting of the Gibraltar Contingency Council (GCC) took place today to review security and civil contingency matters. The meeting was co-chaired by His Excellency the Governor and the Deputy Chief Minister, Dr Joseph Garcia.

As a result, the GCC assessed that there was no change in the threat level with a terrorist attack remaining as strong possibility; but there is, however, no specific intelligence to suggest a direct threat to Gibraltar or any forthcoming on-Rock event.

The GCC will continue to closely monitor threat intelligence as it relates to Gibraltar, and Gibraltar’s Law Enforcement Agencies will continue to take the necessary measures to keep the public safe by modifying their operational posture in light of forthcoming high-profile public events including UK/Gibraltar’s exit from the European Union.

As ever, the public is asked to remain vigilant and to report any security and law enforcements concerns to the Royal Gibraltar Police.
