Euro 2016 soccer championship in France is a target for IS terrorists, the US has become the latest government to issue a warning to its citizens. The U.S. Department of State issued an alert on Tuesday that appeal citizens to be prepared for extra security screening and unexpected disruptions. The most popular targets for terroristic acts are tourist sites, shopping malls, as well as major sporting events.

According to Ministry of Interior of France, terrorists intend to use a new tactic for maximum panic. They’re placing explosive devices in places where there are large crowds and repeating this type of action to create a climate of maximum panic. So, US appeals to postpone the trip to France this summer.
