In December, German prosecutors identified four suspects, including one Egyptian and two Lebanese nationals, as “Hamas veterans.” The weapons they possessed were intended to be used in potential terrorist attacks on Jewish institutions in Europe. According to sources, the suspects had been in Berlin multiple times searching for weapons.
In January, the Shin Bet and Mossad disclosed that Hamas was working on plans to carry out terrorist attacks in the Middle East, Africa, and Europe. On December 14, 2023, authorities in Denmark and Germany conducted a widespread arrest of suspects across Europe who are now facing legal proceedings. Through ongoing intelligence efforts, it has become clear that Hamas is targeting innocent people worldwide and is taking inspiration from the actions of the Iranian regime.
The ministry stated that Hamas’ goal is to harm Israeli, Jewish, and Western entities at any cost. This poses a significant threat to global security and highlights the need for continued vigilance against terrorist organizations like Hamas.
