Dutch authorities are increasing security measures for Iranian dissidents following a shooting of a 36-year-old Iranian-descent man in Schoonhoven on Thursday; Justice and Security Minister David van Weel said the assessment was prompted by the victim's public criticism of Tehran's regime on social media. Dutch intelligence has previously attributed murders of two Iranian-Dutch citizens in 2015 and 2017 to Iran, and authorities are investigating potential Iranian involvement in a Rotterdam synagogue explosion earlier this month.
