New Warnings of Terror Teams Possibly on Their Way From Syria to Europe
By LOUISE DEWAST LONDON — Jun 15, 2016, 10:56 AM ET
Law enforcement officials in Europe have been warned that small groups of extremists might have left Syria for France and Belgium with plans to stage attacks, Belgian officials told ABC News.
Belgian newspaper La Derniere Heure first reported that Belgian police had warned their counterparts in France that fighters with access to weapons could have left Syria about 10 days ago, traveling through Turkey and Greece.
La Derniere Heure, or “The Last Hour,” reported other details, which have not been confirmed, including that a Brussels shopping mall, a U.S. fast-food chain and police stations were among the targets.
“The information published in la Derniere Heure is one among many others that we have been aware of in the past few weeks,” a spokesman at Belgium’s Crisis Center (part of the Interior Ministry) told ABC News. ”This information needs to be contextualized.”
