On Tuesday, 14 individuals, including minors, were arrested across the Netherlands on charges of inciting terrorism through social media platforms.
The suspects, ranging from 14 to 30 years old, are accused of attempting to provoke others to carry out terrorist activities, particularly through the platform TikTok.
The arrests occurred in various locations throughout the Netherlands, with multiple regional police units participating in a coordinated operation alongside the national prosecution office, according to the statement.
These arrests are part of ongoing efforts by Dutch authorities to tackle terrorism-related crimes conducted online.
Due to the ongoing investigation and the involvement of minors, the authorities did not disclose the specific locations of the arrests or release the names of the suspects.
