Rome: The Vatican is on alert in case of an attack by Islamist militants against the city-state or Pope Francis, but officials are not aware of any specific plot, the head of Vatican security said in a rare interview. “The threat exists. This is what has emerged from conversations with Italian and foreign colleagues,” Domenico Giani told Polizia Moderna, the magazine published by Italian police, when asked if threats from Islamic State militants were credible. “(But) at the moment I can say that we are not aware of any plan to attack the Vatican or the Holy Father,” he added in the interview, published on the magazine’s website on Monday. Islamic State militants have made threats against Catholic targets in Rome that have been given much space in Italian media. Last month, in a video showing the beheading of 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians in Libya, one of the killers said: “Safety for you crusaders is something you can only wish for … We will conquer Rome, by the will of Allah.”
