(Algemeiner) The head of Germany’s police service on Wednesday said there was little doubt that four men detained on Dec. 14 were planning terrorist attacks on Jewish targets at the behest of Hamas.
“There is an urgent suspicion that the accused allegedly planned an attack against Jewish institutions in Europe and wanted to collect weapons that they hid in a depot,” Holger Münch — the president of the German Federal Criminal Office (BKA) — stated in an interview with the Swiss news outlet NZZ.
Asked whether the alleged terrorists had set up their weapons dump at a site in Poland, Münch said only that it was “somewhere in Europe” and that further details would emerge from intelligence reports.
