"Champions League Quarterfinals: Heightened Security Amid ISIS Threat"

TL;DR Summary
ISIS supporters have issued a threat to soccer stadiums across Europe, including London's Emirates Stadium, Paris's Parc de Prince, and Madrid's Santiago Bernabéu, ahead of major games in the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League. The online threats have prompted heightened security measures, with UEFA stating that all matches are planned to go ahead as scheduled with appropriate security arrangements in place. This comes in the wake of a recent attack in Moscow claimed by an ISIS Russia branch and an arrest in Idaho of a man accused of plotting to kill churchgoers in the name of ISIS.
