It is not for the first time that the attack is taking place in Vienna. On October 29, the group of about 50 men of Turkish origin staged a pogrom in the Catholic Church of St. Anthony of Padua.
A series of attacks on religious sites and priests is taking place in Europe after the French President E. Macron made a speech on 2 October, vowing to fight “radical Islamism”, eradicate “separatism” and uphold secular values at all costs.
