Al-Qaeda was planning a terrorist attack in Poland, but the Polish intelligence agencies thwarted the plan, we learn from Angora magazine.
According to Angora’s journalists the secret operation (codename “Stand”) was carried out by the Internal Security Agency (ABW) and the Foreign Intelligence Agency (AW) in cooperation with the CIA and the German secret service. The operation began in 2005 when American intelligence agencies informed the Polish authorities about a possible Al-Qaeda terrorist attack in Poland during a large event.
However, when Poland and Ukraine won the battle to organise Euro 2012, terrorists postponed their attack until the tournament. Several explosives were supposed to be planted in the structure of a renovated football stadium and detonated during one of the Euro 2012 matches, but the Polish intelligence services learnt of these plans and kept the terrorists under strict surveillance.
