The State Department issued a travel warning on Monday urging U.S. citizens to be vigilant while attending holiday festivals, events, and outdoor markets in Europe over the next few weeks due to a heightened risk of terrorist attacks.
The updated alert came one day after French authorities arrested seven people on Sunday during anti-terror raids in Strasbourg and Marseilles, CNN reported. Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said Monday the arrests effectively thwarted “a new terrorist attack that had been planned for a long time on our soil.”
