Parliament car crash is sixth attempted terror attack targeting Westminster in 17 months

A vehicle attack that injured three people in Westminster is the latest in a long line of attempted atrocities targeting the political heart of the UK.

The car struck metres away from where Khalid Masood stabbed a police officer to death outside the Houses of Parliament after ploughing his a car into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge in March 2017.

That was the first massacre claimed by ISIS in Britain, and was swiftly followed by four other terror attacks, including two – one ISIS-inspired and one far-right – that used vehicles as a weapon.
