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.

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