Terrorists were behind a total of 211 failed and committed attacks. The bloodiest 17 of the attacks were carried out by so-called jihadists, and 667 suspects were arrested on related charges, Paniagua was quoted as saying by Belga news agency during a meeting of the European Parliament's Committee on Civil Liberties.

Paniagua said that terrorist cells, ready to carry out attacks in the European Union, were homegrown but had connections to the Daesh terrorist group.

The Daesh terrorist group, outlawed in Russia and numerous other countries, operates mainly in Syria and Iraq but has claimed responsibility for attacks worldwide.
