TL;DR

An Austrian court sentenced 21-year-old Beran A to 15 years in prison after he admitted planning a foiled Islamist attack on Taylor Swift’s Vienna concert in 2024, including attempts to illegally buy weapons and following an ISIS video to build a bomb. He also faced separate Middle East attack plots with two school friends; a co-defendant was sentenced to 12 years. The three Swift concerts in Vienna were canceled amid the security threat and Swift’s public remarks afterward.
