Not the first threat in Munich

Bayern is also aware of the incident. The club is “in close communication and coordination with the police”. It is not the first time that Bayern Munich has been the center of attention for IS terrorists. In the summer of 2016, police in Munich arrested a man for allegedly planning an attack during the opening match of the Bundesliga at the Allianz Arena.

Since the IS attack on a concert in Moscow, several countries have raised their terror alert levels. The risk situation is also being closely monitored in Germany. According to a spokesperson, this has “not yet changed” as a result of the attack in Moscow. (mbi)
