Three Taylor Swift concerts in Vienna this week have been cancelled after police foiled a terror attack plot with a focus on the singer's Austrian Eras Tour dates.

A 19-year-old Austrian citizen had confessed to planning a suicide attack targeting fans outside the stadium, Austria’s interior minister, Gerhard Karner, told reporters on Thursday.
