Home Office 3/2/2022 News Terrorist Threat Assessment 2019- 2021 The ICCT Threat Assessment provides a data-driven overview about the state of the terrorist threat in the thirty-one countries that are members of the Madrid Group.

Overall, the impression one could take away from the data is that terrorism in these countries has been experiencing a status quo. The various ideologies are sticking to a particular weapon type, the numbers of victims per attack have remained low throughout the period we examined, and the threats from terrorists of different ideological stripes remain geographically confined. Against this background, it would be prudent to be on the lookout for events or developments that might change that.
