\r\n\tIsraeli intelligence service Mossad participated in the arrest of a Hamas-linked group in Germany planning attacks against Israeli and Jewish targets<\/strong><\/p>

The operation took place on Wednesday and was announced on Friday.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nThe Mossad worked alongside German security and intelligence forces to thwart the group’s plans.<\/p>

\r\nAccording to German authorities, three men were arrested in Berlin on suspicion of planning a violent attack.<\/p>

\r\nThey are accused of purchasing weapons, including an AK-47 rifle, pistols, and a large amount of ammunition, since the summer of this year to attack Israeli or Jewish institutions in Germany.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nThe suspects were identified only as Abed Al G.<\/p>

\r\n(a German citizen), Wael F.<\/p>

\r\nM.<\/p>

\r\n(born in Lebanon), and Ahmad I.<\/p>

\r\n(a German citizen), in accordance with German privacy laws.<\/p>

\r\nPolice had been monitoring the suspects for some time and acted during a weapons delivery in Berlin, finding the AK-47 rifle, a Glock pistol, and a large quantity of ammunition.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nThe Mossad reported that the operation involved several countries and was part of a larger effort in Europe to find weapons caches and arrest other terrorist suspects.<\/p>

\r\nHamas, the group that controls Gaza and is supported by Iran, is considered a terrorist organization by the European Union, the United States, and other countries.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nHamas has denied any connection to the three suspects, saying the accusations are false and that its fight is limited to combating the Israeli occupation of Palestine.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nIn February, four Hamas members had already been tried in Berlin for planning attacks against Jewish institutions in Europe, the first such case in Germany.<\/p>

\r\nSince the Hamas attack on October 7, police in several European countries have increased security at Jewish and Israeli sites, especially after an increase in anti-Semitic acts.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nThe Mossad announcement came after a terrorist attack in Manchester, England, where a gunman attacked a synagogue on the Jewish holy day of Yom Kippur, killing two people and seriously injuring others.\r\n<\/p>

\r\nGermany, a strong ally of Israel, maintains heightened security at synagogues and other Jewish sites, particularly given its Holocaust history.<\/p>

\r\nIt recently opted not to recognize a Palestinian state, unlike nations like France and the United Kingdom, a decision Israel and the Trump administration criticized as a payback for the October 7 Hamas attack that sparked the Gaza war.
