I was on Walking Street last night around 23:00...heavy Police, Tourist Ppolice and Army presence at the start of walking street...especially in the first 7-11...standing around in the air con 7-11....looking for terrorists......and not a BIB/Army/TP to be seen elsewhere on the the street.....I felt so safe

I think they re entering many countries currently to disrupt Christmas Celebrations.......my opinion only
