Federal prosecutors arrested a cell of alleged Hamas terrorists, who are said to have acquired firearms and a “significant” quantity of ammunition for assassinations against Jewish and Israeli figures in Germany. Three men, identified in line with Germany privacy law as German citizens Abed Al G. and Ahmad I, and Lebanese-citizen Wael FM, have been arrested over an alleged plot to assassinate prominent Jews in Germany. They are accused of being members of a foreign terrorist organisation, Hamas. The three are not the only alleged Hamas arrested by German security services of late. In 2023, seven men were arrested across Germany, Denmark, and the Netherlands over an alleged plot to locate and excavate a lost Hamas weapons cache buried underground and then use it to launch attacks against the European Jewish community.
