The CIA said it helped stop a terrorist attack that was being planned for a Taylor Swift “Eras Tour” concert in Vienna earlier this month.
CIA Deputy Director David S. Cohen made the revelation during the Intelligence and National Security Summit in Maryland this week, per Time. He said the CIA passed intel to Austrian authorities, which they used to help shut down the scheme.
“They were plotting to kill a huge number, tens of thousands of people at this concert, I am sure many Americans,” Cohen said. “The Austrians were able to make those arrests because the agency and our partners in the intelligence community provided them information about what this ISIS-connected group was planning to do.”

The information led to canceling three sold-out concerts in Austria over the second weekend of August.
