Europol Director Rob Wainwright told the Italian parliament's Schengen committee on Wednesday that another major terrorist attack was likely to happen in Europe. He said the terror threat was "still very high, the most serious since the time of September 11 and I fear that another attack in Europe is probable in the future". Wainwright added that "we don't have any information about specific threats to Italy". In January a Europol report said there would be more terror attacks in Europe. "We knew," Wainwright said, "that ISIS had set up a new command structure in Syria to plan attacks against European cities and then, unfortunately, Brussels happened". He said "our priority, therefore, is to identify other terror networks in activity in Europe". ISIS jihadists attacked Paris on November 13 killing 130 and Brussels on March 22 killing 32.
