Dutch Intelligence: At least 10 Jihadist attacks prevented in Europe in 2023
The Dutch intelligence agency announced on Tuesday that Western intelligence services prevented at least 10 jihadist attacks across Europe last year.
The agency stated that the current conflict between Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas has increased the risk of attacks.
In its annual report, the agency declared without detailing, that random attacks on people, buildings, and specific events were part of thwarted attack schemes.
The burning of the Quran in Holland and other European countries, as well as the Israel-Hamas conflict, were primary triggers for the thwarted attacks.
In October, two Swedish football fans were shot dead in Brussels by a man who claimed to be a member of ISIS.
During the same month, in the town of Eragny, France, a 20-year-old man killed a teacher with a knife and wounded two others.
The Dutch intelligence agency did not specify how many unsuccessful attacks occurred in Europe during this period.
