Fabrice Leggeri, the Executive
Director of EU border agency Frontex, said Tuesday that the
state of alert about potential terrorist attacks remains high.
"(The terrorism threat) remains high and we must be certain
that there are no frontier crossings to the EU that are not
intercepted, as this would be to the detriment of European
security," Leggeri told the European Parliament as he reported
on the Themis operation.
He said Frontex aircraft had detected un-intercepted migrant
flows from Algeria and Tunisia, adding that this raised
"security concerns".
