The Prince of Wales has voiced concern over the "alarming" radicalisation of young people in the UK.
In a radio interview Prince Charles said the extent to which young people are becoming radicalised is one of the "greatest worries".
He said it was particularly concerning "in a country like ours where you know the values we hold dear".
"You think that the people who have come here, born here, go to school here, would abide by those values and outlooks," the Prince told BBC Radio 2's The Sunday Hour.
His comments came as he kicked off a six-day tour of the Middle East.

The Prince of Wales landed in Jordan late on Saturday, where he is due to hold talks with King Abdullah II.
Jordan has carried out three consecutive days of airstrikes on Islamic State targets after the terrorist group released a video showing 26-year-old Jordanian pilot Moaz al Kasabeh being burned to death.
Prince Charles said preventing the radicalisation of Muslim youth was a "great challenge" and something that could not be swept "under the carpet".
He expressed particular concern over the threat posed by young Muslims coming into contact with extremists online, describing it as "frightening".
"I can see I suppose to a certain extent, some aspect of this radicalisation is a search for adventure and excitement at a particular age," he said, adding that he had tried to create alternative paths for young people through his work with The Princes Trust charity.
The Prince's tour will also see him travel to Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.
His first official stop in Jordan was a Syrian refugee camp to see how thousands displaced from their homeland are rebuilding their lives.
The Prince was joined by International Development Secretary Justine Greening.
