A teenage Muslim convert terrorist who plotted an attack at the Isle of Wight Festival has been moved to a "five-star" health facility.
Nathan Ruth, 18, has been transferred from Feltham Young Offenders institute to an NHS mental health institute - despite stabbing 10 prison officers during his time in custody.
Ruth now resides at Bluebird House in Hampshire - but his arrival could leave staff in danger.
Prison sources at Feltham have told the Daily Mail that employees at his new NHS unit are not safe from the Muslim-convert extremist, who tried to slice one guard's ear off and stabbed another with a makeshift weapon known as a "shank".

Ruth was jailed for seven years in 2024 after being convicted of plotting an attack at the popular music festival when he was just 15-years-old.
He had researched weapons, vehicles and stab vests before being snared following a tip-off from the FBI.
A leaked intelligence report reveals Ruth has a history of improvising weapons and attacking staff, and that he intends to kill a prison officer.
Between his arrest in July 2022 and sentencing in April last year, he had already attacked prison personnel on 18 occasions.
Ruth will now be able to take advantage of sports facilities, quizzes, arts and crafts and movie nights at Bluebird House.

COUNTER TERRORISM POLICING
The centre's website states that staff provide "a friendly, welcoming and therapeutic environment for our young people".
The unit's three wards care for up to 20 youths and include a relaxation room, sports hall, games room, fitness suite and all-weather sports area.
Patients are provided with their own "homely and comfortable" bedroom with an en-suite.
"During evenings and weekends we plan activities such as sports, boardgames, quizzes, arts and crafts and film nights," the website continues.
Guards at Feltham would wear full riot gear when they delivered food or allowed him out to shower or exercise, and staff are shocked he has been transferred to a hospital that "looks more like a five-star hotel", a source said.
"He has stabbed so many officers while in Feltham - and openly boasts to staff that we will see him on the news one day," the source added.

"We can't believe they have let him go. He has 100 per cent manipulated the system to get himself sent somewhere more comfortable."
The source added that once it had been decided that Feltham was detrimental to his health, the terrorist began boasting about his luxurious new quarters and how the facility would be easier to escape from.
"What really annoys staff is that he has received no further prison time for all the stabbings against staff," they said.
"They just want to focus on his rehabilitation. Well, tell that to the officer who nearly lost an ear. He is a stone-cold psychopath, the scariest I have ever seen.
"He will not stop until he has killed someone. Staff at that place do not know what they are letting themselves in for."
