Police have intensified security measures following the terror attack in London in which five people were killed and at least 40 injured.
The national police chief ordered all police to closely monitor the situation, particularly at the United Kingdom Embassy in Bangkok, as well as other higher risk locations.
Deputy police spokesman Colonel Krissana Pattanacharoen said police were ready to deploy more officers to the UK Embassy and elsewhere if required. Intelligence points to no specific terrorist threat against Thailand, he said.
But he warned Thai nationals planning on travelling to Europe, particularly England, to monitor the situation closely.
