(Reuters) The threat of terrorism in Denmark and against its interests abroad has risen because of Israel’s war against Hamas militants in Gaza and a series of Koran burnings in Denmark last year, the Danish security and intelligence service PET said on Thursday.
The PET rated the overall threat level at 4 out of 5, but said the risks within that level had increased.
“The conflict between Israel and a number of militant groups is of course of concern to many people, including in Denmark,” PET said in a statement.
