Counter-terrorism officers are working to uncover the origin of the nerve agent used in the attempted murder of ex-Russian spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia, in Salisbury.
The pair are still critically ill after being found on a bench in Salisbury.
A police officer, who was in intensive care, is now "engaging and talking with people" but the situation is still serious, the home secretary says.
Amber Rudd said there was "nothing soft" about the UK's response.
She told Radio 4's Today: "Let me be clear, we are absolutely robust about any crimes committed on these streets of the UK."
Police said government scientists had identified the nerve agent used, but would not make that information public at this stage.
