Eyewitness: "It looked like there was a great deal of planning"
Four men have been arrested in London in a counter-terrorism operation, the Metropolitan Police has said.
Scotland Yard said they were held under the Terrorism Act 2000 on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism.
Armed officers were involved in the arrests, which took place on Sunday at around 19:10 BST in the Whitechapel, Bayswater and Peckham areas.
Police said searches were taking place at six addresses.
In a statement the Met said the arrests were made during a "pre-planned, intelligence-led operation".
The men have been taken to a south London police station.
Two men were arrested in Mansell Street, Whitechapel, east London. One man was arrested at a premises in Westbourne Grove, Bayswater, west London, and the fourth man in Peckham Hill Street, Peckham, south-east London.
Alistair Gillies, 38, who saw one of the arrests taking place, told the BBC: "I was just going out to try and get something to eat and walking back up Westbourne Grove towards Bayswater and I noticed that a police car had pulled across the road.
"There was probably in the region of about two dozen officers. The majority of them appeared to be plain clothes but they had on baseball caps with the checkerboard and police marking, apart from that, they were dressed in plain clothes."
He added: "It didn't look like they had just pulled a car over or had just picked someone up. It looked like there was a great deal of planning and a great deal of resources had been put on to tackling this situation."
