'Huge risk of terror attacks' in Europe over Christmas, warns top official


A top European official has warned that there is a ‘huge risk of terrorist attacks’ in the EU over the Christmas period.

European Home Affairs Commission Ylva Johansson warned that the increased risk of terror attacks is likely to come from the polarisation of society caused by the Israel-Hamas war.

Her comments come days after a tourist was stabbed to death in Paris. She said: “We saw it recently in Paris, unfortunately we have seen it earlier as well.”

She did not specify whether there was any specific information which had led to the warning.
