DUTCH FORCES ARREST TWO PLOTTING TERRORIST CAR BOMB ATTACK BY YEAR'S END
Two men were arrested in the Netherlands on Monday, accused of preparing to carry out a terrorist attack using at least one car bomb and bomb vests, the Public Prosecution Service (OM) revealed on Tuesday. The suspects were allegedly plotting to carry out an attack in the Netherlands by the end of the year.
Authorities said it was not yet clear what was targeted in the attack. Intelligence agency AIVD first found out about the men because the two "suspects intended to commit a jihadist attack. They wanted to make use of explosives, and to receive training for this purpose," the OM stated.
The men are aged 20 and 34. Both are from Zoetermeer, a Zuid-Holland city just east of The Hague. One of the two was taken into custody on a street in the Hague, while the other was captured at his home.
