BREAKING: France raises terror threat to ‘ATTACK EMERGENCY’ after Strasbourg shooting (express, Dec 12, 2018)

“THE FRENCH authorities have raised the country’s terror threat to “attack emergency” after deadly shootings in Strasbourg on Tuesday night, according to the French interior minister.
The threat level is the highest of a three-tier system and means “exceptional measures are in place to prevent any imminent risk of attack”.
It was raised by the French interior minister after a gunman opened fire at Strasbourg Christmas market.
Interior minister Christophe Castaner told reporters early on Wednesday morning the national terror level had been raised from “Heightened Security” to “Attack Emergency” – the highest level.
The government’s official website says an Attack Emergency, or Urgence Attentat in French, can be declared in the event of an imminent threat of a terrorist act or directly after an attack.
The decision came just hours after a suspected terrorist opened fire near the famous Strasbourg Christmas market – where millions of tourists travel every year.
The suspect was known to security services and is believed to be at large as police attempt to track him down.
The shooting happened near one of Strasbourg’s central squares, Place Kléber.
There were a total of three fatalities from the attack, with France’s counterterrorism prosecutor opening an investigation.
