Austria is facing “high-risk threats” of Islamist terrorism, according to the head of the Central European country’s domestic intelligence agency, who spoke after yet another terrorist attack, this time targeting a railway station, was thwarted.

Austrian authorities announced on Wednesday, February 19th, that they had arrested a 14-year-old boy with Turkish roots last week. He was planning to carry out an attack on one of Vienna’s largest train stations, the Westbahnhof.

The boy had been radicalised on the internet and had shared posts and videos with Islamic extremist content—including an excerpt from the 2015 Islamist terrorist attack on the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo—on several TikTok profiles.

During a search of his home in Vienna, investigators found numerous Islamist extremist books as well as sketches of attacks with knives and machetes at a station and against police officers, and drawings of fighters with the Islamic State (ISIS) flag. They also found handwritten instructions for making explosive material to serve as a detonator for a bomb.
