Western Europe has seen 21 attempted terror attacks and seven successful attacks so far this year, as a terrorism expert warns that there may be far more attacks ahead in the coming months.

German terrorism researcher Peter Neumann notes that the number of attempted attacks this year is four times larger than in 2022 and is calling for the creation of a Europe-wide thread database to help authorities stop attacks before they happen.

“We have still not managed to create a European database where all these people are in it so that, for example, if this attacker is noticed during a traffic check in Bavaria, a hit is immediately displayed,” he said.

Neumann stated that even German and Austrian authorities do not coordinate in a seamless manner, which was noted after an Austrian Islamist was shot dead in Munich on Thursday outside of the Israeli Consulate General.

Investigators believe the man may have been planning to attack the consulate on the anniversary of the attack on the Israeli Olympic team in Munich, which took place in 1972.

Germany saw another attempted Islamist attack this week in Linz in the Rhineland-Palatinate region, when a man yelling “Allahu Akbar” attacked a local police station while armed with a machete.

The 29-year-old was overpowered after yelling that he wanted to murder police, and a hand-drawn Islamic State flag was later found in his home.

The two attacks come just weeks after three people were fatally stabbed in Germany at a diversity fair in the city of Solingen. The suspect in the case is a Syrian failed asylum seeker who pledged allegiance to the Islamic State.
