Anonymous, the international collective of online hackers, released a statement saying it had collected information about imminent attacks to take place on Sunday, November 22, 2015 by the militant group — aka Daesh, ISIL and ISIS — which include a Five Finger Death Punch show scheduled at the Alcatraz in Milan, Italy, and an EDM concert featuring Adam Beyer and Alan Fitzpatrick that’s to take place at the Concrete in Paris, France.
Anonymous also said the Islamic State group is planning an assault at the WWE Survivor Series event scheduled to take place in the Philips Arena in Atlanta Sunday at 7.30 p.m. EST, as well as attacks at multiple events in Paris.
OpParisIntel released this statement  a short time ago due to the group’s frustration at the failure of authorities to alert people that these threats are viable and present imminent danger. The link on pastebin highlights the following:
All proof was submitted to official authorities all around the globe days ago. They have it and it is their responsibility to do something with it. But because they have not done anything with it yet and it’s almost the 22nd, we have taken matters into our hands. We only take the responsibility of warning civilians (in case the authorities do not act well enough).
We have seen and received threats from several (pro-)Daesh accounts, but not just regular threats. These threats were all focussed on 1 date: the 22nd of November. Our intel team started gathering Intel after having verified the threats and has narrowed all it’s findings down to this pastebin.Â
This is a warning to anyone going to any of the events listed below or going to any event with a lot of people, church services included – but the risk of any churches outside Paris/France being targeted is low. How large some threats/planned attacks are is for most events unknown. But since 1 man can kill hundreds in one act we have included events which were threatened by single people too.
We hope that at these events adding more security will be enough to prevent any possible attacks.
Events in Paris that have been confirmed are at risk:
-
Demonstration by: “Collectif du droit des femmes” (Group for women’s rights) (Demonstrations are now banned, cancelled)
-
– Cigales Electroniques with Vocodecks, RE-Play & Rawtor at Le Bizen
-
– Concrete Invites Drumcode: Adam Beyer, Alan Fitzpatrick, Joel Mull.. at Concrete (Probably cancelled)
Events we have received/found threats for, but weren’t 100% confirmed:
-
WWE Survival Series (US)
-
– Feast of Christ the King celebrations (Rome/Worldwide)
-
– Al-Jihad, 1 Day Juz (Indonesia)
-
– Five Finger Death Punch (Milan, Italy)
-
– University Pastoral Day (Holy Spirit University of Kaslik, Lebanon)
Anonymous noted that: “Threats” aren’t the same as “plans”, even though some threats look like plans it doesn’t mean they are all planned to be executed.
Officials in Atlanta are taking the threat of an attack at the WWE Survival Series to be held at Phillips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia very seriously.
The FBI released the following statement to Channel 2 Action News:
“The FBI is aware of reports of an alleged threat that includes an Atlanta, Georgia venue and event. Â While we take all threats seriously, we do not have specific or credible information of an attack at this time. Â We have, however, made the proper notifications as we continue to work closely with our law enforcement and private sector partners to keep our community safe.”
The threats come just eight days after terrorists struck Paris, killing 130Â people and injuring 300 others. Of those, 89 people lost their lives at the Bataclan, where Eagles of Death Metal were performing a concert.
