WASHINGTON, Oct 11 : The United States on Friday warned of possible attacks against Western targets in reprisal for its military campaign against the Islamic State group in Syria and Iraq. The US State Department regularly updates its notice on worldwide risks, but the last update had been in April -- before the jihadists took over a swath of the two countries, and before the creation of a US-Arab-European coalition to fight them.
"Authorities believe there is an increased likelihood of reprisal attacks against US, Western and coalition partner interests throughout the world, especially in the Middle East, North Africa, Europe and Asia," the notice said.    ?AFP
