The Anonymous hacktivist group warns that the Daesh Takfiri terrorists are planning to carry out attacks in France, the US, and other locations around the globe on Sunday.

On Saturday, the loose collective of online activists released a report saying it had gathered information that Daesh plans to attack three events in Paris, a women’s rights group event and two musical ones.

The group noted that the women’s rights event and one of the concerts has been canceled.

“This is a warning to anyone going to any of the events listed below or going to any event with a lot of people, church services included – but the risk of any churches outside Paris/France being targeted is low,” read the report.

The report also pointed to “unconfirmed” threat alerts about an attack on a wrestling event in Atlanta in the US and series of other events in Italy, Indonesia, and Lebanon.

Anonymous noted that the information was gathered from various Takfiri online accounts, adding that all the attacks were set to take place on November 22.

The collective stressed that all the information had been shared with authorities “days ago” but, “The goal is to make sure the whole world, or at least the people going to these events, know that there have been threats and that there is possibility of an attack to happen. Another goal is to make sure Daesh knows that the world knows and cancels the attacks, which will disorientate them for a while."

Anonymous has declared a total war on the Daesh terrorists since a series of coordinated attacks in Paris shocked the world on November 13 by claiming the lives of some 130 people.
