PST has come up with a threat assessment for Pride events – Latest news – news

25 May 2023 at 17:18 PST has come up with a threat assessment for Pride events PST writes: – LGBT+ people and gathering places are part of the enemy image of both right-wing extremists and extreme Islamists and have been actualized as targets in the past year. – Both far-right and extreme Islamist propaganda encourage attacking easily accessible targets with few security measures. Populous targets with few or no security measures are therefore attractive terrorist targets, and a large proportion of carried out and averted attacks in recent years have been aimed at such targets. – Pride events in particular that gather large crowds will be attractive targets. – Means of attack in both extreme Islamist and far-right terrorist attacks are likely to be simple and easily accessible means. – Security measures for a potential target can lead to target displacement, so that threat actors change their mode and choose more accessible targets in fringe zones between secured and unsecured areas.
