A German court has convicted a 16-year-old Syrian national for his involvement in a thwarted terror plot targeting a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna. The teenager, identified as Mohammad A., received an 18-month suspended sentence after being found guilty of preparing and supporting a violent act abroad. The court determined that he had supported the ideology of a terrorist group and assisted an Austrian accomplice by providing bomb-making instructions and facilitating contact with a group member. The plot was uncovered in August 2024, prompting the cancellation of three concerts and the arrest of three suspects in Austria.
