Mr Wainwright said the group had "developed a new combat style capability to carry out a campaign of large-scale terrorist attacks on the global stage, with a particular focus on targeting Europe".

Europe's leaders, he said, had decided to establish "for the first time a dedicated pan-European operational centre to combat terrorism".

The Europol report says: "IS is preparing more terrorist attacks, including more 'Mumbai-style' attacks, to be executed in member states of the EU, and in France in particular.

"The attacks will be primarily directed at soft targets, because of the impact it generates."

The 13 November attacks in Paris and the downing of a Russian airliner over Egypt last October "suggest a shift in IS strategy towards going global", it says.

Mr Wainwright said more than 5,000 EU nationals had been radicalised fighting abroad and many had returned home.

He said the centre's priority would be to improve information exchange between EU members.

It will also focus on links to other criminal sectors.

Mr Wainwright said: "We know that many terrorist suspects, such as those responsible for the terrible attacks in Paris, have a criminal background, are linked with the drugs sector, firearms and other criminal sectors.
