A decided dearth of interesting information, like the identity or description of the arrested gent or his target.
[IsraelTimes] UK counter-terrorism police have arrested a man in his 20s after a package containing a small improvised bomb was sent to a residential address in north London.

The Metropolitan Police say the suspect was detained in Cambridge this morning on suspicion of attempting to cause a kaboom, or making or keeping explosives with intent to endanger life or property.

It says armed officers from Cambridgeshire Constabulary’s Armed Response Unit were deployed during the arrest "as a precautionary measure."

The Met says the man had been taken into custody at a south London cop shoppe and that officers were searching two addresses in Cambridge.

In a statement, the Met says specialist officers attended reports of a suspicious package in Cricklewood in north London and "made safe what was assessed to be a small improvised bomb."
