Domestically, the U.S. and U.K. reported a rise in youth radicalization and lone-actor violence, while coordinated arson attacks on infrastructure drew federal investigation. Globally, the number of countries experiencing terrorist incidents rose to 66, reversing nearly a decade of improvement.
Notable incidents include the BLA's hijacking of a Pakistani passenger train, an Al-Shabaab attack in Kenya, and the emergence of the "No Lives Matter" group as a significant domestic threat. Legal responses, including arrests and raids across Europe, reflect growing concern over non-state actors and decentralized extremist networks.
