LYON, France - 22 July 2017: Interpol has listed 173 jihadists it believes are trained to mount suicide attacks in Europe in revenge for defeats Daesh terrorist group has suffered in the Middle East, according to Sky New channel.

The crime-fighting agency’s list is said to have been outlined by US intelligence from information obtained during battles with Daesh in Syria and Iraq.

European counter-terror networks are concerned that as Daesh terrorist group collapses, there is an increasing threat that lone wolf suicide bombers will try and come to Europe to launch attacks.

There is no evidence that any of the people on the list have yet entered Europe, but the Interpol circulation, designed to see if EU intelligence sources have any details on the individuals, highlights the dangers facing European countries.
