Explosive Attacks Drop But Youth Still at Risk | Amsterdam News
Description
Explosive attacks are down 17% in the first half of this year — a promising step toward hitting the annual 10% reduction goal. But with nearly half the arrests involving minors and most offenders under 30, authorities are sounding the alarm: every attack is still too many. Lawmakers in Rotterdam and across Europe are cracking down by targeting the supply chain — especially smuggled fireworks from Germany and online sources — while launching cross-border Europol efforts with Germany and Sweden. Prevention is key, so they’re rolling out youth mediation programs and parental support to build resilience against online crime. It’s a multi-pronged, long-term strategy — but that dip in numbers? That’s a solid start.
