That status "applies when an incident occurs or intelligence is received indicating some form of terrorist action or targeting against personnel or facilities is likely," according to the US Army. "Malign actors have increased the threat of attacks against various non-military targets in Europe," the messaging points said, adding that EUCOM "takes operational security seriously, and reminds its employees to remain vigilant against attempts to collect on US activities, be extra mindful of conversations in public, and maintain a low profile so as not to be identified as a mark.
