The “Islamic State of Khorasan Province” (IKEX) – as the jihadist group Islamic State is called – which US intelligence agencies believe was responsible for the deadly terrorist attack near Moscow, is the biggest Islamist security threat in Germany, its interior minister said on Tuesday. country Nancy Feser.
“The threat level remains high,” warned the German minister. “It was already high before the Moscow attack and it has remained high,” she noted, referring to the Crocus City Hall massacre that left 139 dead and 180 wounded, for which the Islamic State group claimed responsibility.
Germany will tighten border controls as part of heightened security measures due to the summer’s European Football Championship. “Safety is of course our highest priority in this event”, emphasized Fezer, explaining that not only the security forces but also the intelligence services are on heightened alert.
