(NL Times) The National Counterterrorism Coordinator (NCTV) warned that radicalized groups of jihadists, Salafist Muslims and members of the extreme right pose the greatest threat to national security. There is currently no concrete evidence that an attack is being planned, the NCTV stated in their 54th terrorism threat assessment. The threat level remained at three out of five.
“The possibility that an extreme right-wing single-acting perpetrator in the Netherlands will commit an attack is conceivable,” the report noted. The extreme right especially resonates with young, troubled Dutch people who often encounter extreme right propaganda online. “In addition, there are people who sometimes threaten (online) with serious violence from the right-wing extremist, but also from the anti-government angle.”
