German police arrested a Lebanese national, identified as Mohammad S, at Berlin's Brandenburg Airport on Friday evening on suspicion of Hamas membership and planning attacks in Europe. Prosecutors allege that in August 2023, he helped procure ammunition and was involved in a plot targeting Jewish and Israeli institutions. He is accused of colluding with Abed Al G, one of three alleged Hamas members arrested in October 2023 in Berlin for similar planned attacks. The arrest is part of ongoing efforts by German authorities to counter Hamas activity within the country, following previous arrests of suspected members in October and November 2023. Mohammad S is due to appear before a judge to determine pretrial detention.
