This is how Barcelona will respond to the terrorist threat

Less than a week since the terror attacks that struck Barcelona, the city is already responding. On the one hand, the local authorities are planning to increase the police presence in key public areas and are studying the possibility of installing physical barriers to prevent further attacks with vehicles. At the same time, Barcelona mayor Ada Colau announced the construction of a permanent memorial to the victims of the attack on La Rambla and recommended distinctions for the security and emergency services in recognition of their efficient handling of the crisis.
