Terrorist plot foiled in Netherlands; Suspects wanted to injure many: police

Police in the Netherlands arrested seven men allegedly involved in a ploy to commit a terrorist attack. Police said the men were trying to acquire the rifles, along with smaller firearms, car bomb material, bombs and hand grenades. One of the men from Arnhem is a 34-year-old previously convicted of trying to travel to a warzone connected to IS. Dutch intelligence service AIVD said it uncovered information that he wanted a group of people to carry out an attack "at a large event in the Netherlands and wanted there to be many victims."
