ISIS Plots Against England's Queen

Islamic State commanders in Syria are plotting to kill Queen Elizabeth during VJ Day celebrations in Central London on Saturday, according to the U.K.'s security services and MI5.

Intelligence gathered reveals that IS is planning to use a pressure cooker bomb to attack the Queen of England during public ceremonies to commemorate Britain's victory over Japan during World War II.

High profile locations including St. Martin in-the-Fields Church in London's Trafalgar Square and Westminster Abbey are said to be targets of the attack. So far, police have not reported any arrests.

British security services discovered the plot after seeing communications between IS militants and their U.K. sympathizers who pledged allegiance to the terror group and are obeying orders to stay in England to carry out attacks there and in Europe.
