Changes in modus operandi of Islamic State terrorist attacks

Review held by experts from Member States and Europol on 29 November and 1 December 2015. Assessing changes in modus operandi of IS and other religiously inspired terrorist groups provides a better understanding of the threat these groups pose to Member States of the EU. It supports the development of likely future scenarios, based on which Member States can be better prepared for future attacks. It also stimulates the early exchange of information and intelligence between CT units.
