The specific measures include an increased number of police officers, explosive detectors, and the changing of transport routes of football players to the match, which is scheduled to start at 09:45 p.m. local time (19:45 GMT).
Tuesday's explosions occurred in the Hoechsten district of Dortmund, some 9.6 kilometers (six miles) away from the Signal Iduna Park stadium where the UEFA Champions League quarter-final game against Monaco FC was expected to take place. Borussia player Marc Bartra and a police officer escorting the bus were injured in what the police called a "targeted attack" against the team.
Germany's Prosecutor General's Office classified the explosion in Dortmund as an act of terrorism. On Thursday, the Prosecutor's Office issued an arrest warrant for an Iraqi citizen identified as 26-year-old Abdul Beset A., thought to be behind the attack and "strongly suspected" of being a member of Daesh terrorist group.
