German federal prosecutors indicted seven men in Berlin who are suspected of membership in the Palestinian movement Hamas or of cooperating with it. According to the indictment, they were to procure weapons for a planned murderous attack against Israeli or Jewish targets in Germany or Austria. Spiegel.de ↗
Investigators claim that the suspects were preparing an attack for the period around the second anniversary of the Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October 2023. The planned attack was to take place in October 2025. Possible targets included Israeli officials, Jewish individuals, or people who support Israel. hnonline.sk ↗
According to the investigation, the defendants were to procure firearms and other material needed to carry out the attack. The investigation also concerns possible plans for attacks in Berlin and Vienna. Authorities did not disclose details about whether the suspects managed to obtain weapons or where exactly the attacks were meant to take place. svet.sme.sk ↗
The case will be heard by a court in Berlin. The indictment so far represents the prosecution's allegations, and the court will decide on the men's guilt. With this case, German authorities drew attention to suspicions of Hamas building operational structures outside the Middle East. Onet Wiadomosci ↗
Further proceedings will depend on the court's decision on whether to admit the indictment and on the evidence presented. Investigators will also continue examining the extent of the suspects' contacts and possible links to other members of the organization.
