14 people have been arrested in connection with a series of shootings in the Austrian capital Vienna that left four people dead.

22 others were injured when a gunman, described as an “Islamist terrorist” by the authorities, fired into crowds of people at six different locations.

In the UK the security threat level has been raised from ‘substantial’ to ‘severe’ which means an attack is thought to be highly likely.

Princess Latifa, the captive daughter of Dubai’s ruler, has appealed to British police to re-investigate the kidnap of her older sister from a Cambridge street more than 20 years ago.

In a letter shared with the BBC, Latifa tells Cambridgeshire police this could help free Princess Shamsa, who was captured on the orders of their father.

Shamsa, who was just 18 then and is now 39, has not been seen in public since.

The government of Dubai has not responded to BBC requests for comment.
