Summary Terrorist Threat Assessment Netherlands 45

The threat level for the Netherlands remains at ‘substantial’, level 4 on a scale of 1 to 5. This means that the chance of an attack is real but that there are no specific indications that an attack is being prepared. Since the previous DTN there have been no developments that would make an attack in the Netherlands less conceivable. The main threat to the Netherlands is posed by jihadism, in the form of a variety of actors (terrorist organisations, transnational networks, small cells and lone terrorists) potentially able to carry out both small and large scale attacks.
