After the PST warned of an increased likelihood of terrorist attacks on police and military forces as well as political figures in Norway, security was stepped up. The PST said the Islamic State's call for attacks on coalition countries must be viewed "in the context of changes to the modus operandi of extreme Islamist terror in Europe in recent years."
Hadia Tajik, head of the parliament's justice committee, said the new terror warning will not affect Norway's decision to send military trainers to help Iraqi forces prepare to confront the Islamic State; she also said more work needs to be done to prevent further radicalization.
