How big was the IS network of Beran A., the thwarted "Swift assassin"? Hasan E., the boy who caused a bloodbath in Saudi Arabia in March 2024, is said to have been his best friend since childhood. Another terrorist accomplice of the two has yet to be identified.

It was on March 11, 2024, when a young man came to a police station in his home community in Lower Austria and reported his "little brother" - Hasan E. (19) - missing.
