German police have arrested three individuals in connection with a suspected Islamist terrorist plot to attack the Cologne Cathedral using a vehicle on New Year's Eve. This follows the arrest of a Tajik national on Christmas Eve, who is believed to be part of a larger network. The police operation has been deemed a success, with heightened security measures, including the deployment of around 1,000 officers, being implemented in Cologne and other German cities to ensure public safety during the New Year's Eve celebrations.
