The threat of terrorism is increasing in Germany. A 14-year-old student is suspected of having ties to ISIS and of planning a terrorist attack during the Christmas season.
The teenager, identified as Emirhan A., came to the attention of German authorities after posting a video on social media in which he referenced ISIS and pledged allegiance to the terrorist organization.
Investigators believe he was preparing to carry out an attack at a Christmas market in December 2025. The case, first reported by Bild, has led to the boy’s detention and an ongoing police investigation.
