BERLIN, July 22, (RTRS): More than three-quarters of Germans believe their country will soon be the target of terrorism, a survey showed on Friday, after a 17-yearold asylum-seeker wounded passengers on a train in an axe attack claimed by Islamic State. Seventy-seven percent expect an attack to happen soon, up from 69 percent two weeks ago, according to the survey compiled by Forschungsgruppe Wahlen for broadcaster ZDF. Bavarian police shot dead the teenager after he wounded four people from Hong Kong on the train and injured a local resident while fleeing. German Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere said investigations suggested he was a 'lone wolf' who had been spurred into action by Islamic State propaganda.
