Midlands Gang Busted Amid UK Gangland Violence

News summary

A major crime gang in the Midlands has been dismantled after police uncovered their production and distribution of 'assassination kits,' which included handguns, silencers, and ammunition, with at least 33 firearms produced for use by the criminal underworld. Simultaneously, gang violence in the UK is escalating, particularly between the Lyons and Daniel gangs, whose feud has led to shootings, firebomb attacks, and assaults across Scotland. The conflict, ignited by a £500,000 cocaine heist, recently saw two Lyons associates killed in Spain in apparent retaliation. Over 20 properties and vehicles have been targeted, with multiple injuries and numerous arrests resulting from police raids. Social media has further fueled tensions and threats between rival factions. Despite the violence, partners of gang members maintain high public profiles and glamorous lifestyles.
