Germany has detected 1,400 unauthorised entries ahead of the UEFA Euro 2024 tournament, as reported by Bild.

This comes as the country prepares to host the event, which began on June 14th and will run until July 14th, 2024, and amid heightened concerns over potential terrorist attacks.

The tournament features 24 teams and is being held across ten different cities in Germany, from Munich to Hamburg​.

The heightened security concerns are likely linked to the influx of visitors and the overall increased attention due to the event. The German government has likely stepped up border controls and other security measures to ensure the safety of fans and participants​​.

Euro 2024 is a significant event for Germany, being the first major men’s tournament hosted there since the 2006 World Cup.

The opening match saw Germany triumph over Scotland with a 5-1 victory​​.

The tournament promises exciting matches, with favourites including reigning champions Italy, hosts Germany, and strong contenders like England and France.​
