Suspected terrorist on Israeli message: arrest in Bernau near Berlin

Karlsruhe, Deutschland - NAG/NAG Redaktion-A 28-year-old Libyan was arrested in Bernau near Berlin, and is suspected of having planned an attack on the Israeli embassy in Berlin. The suspect is today presented to an investigative judge at the Federal Court of Justice in Karlsruhe, where it is decided whether he is in custody. The federal prosecutor accuses him of "supporting a foreign terrorist association". The message confirmed that there were concrete plans for the attack.

The German security authorities had become aware of the suspects by referring to foreign news agencies. In addition, searches were carried out in his apartment in Bernau and in North Rhine-Westphalia. According to reports, the suspect apparently had escape plans to escape abroad after a possible attack. The Israeli ambassador Ron Prosor thanked the security forces for the protection of the message and emphasized the danger that the employees were exposed. The investigation shows that the threat from Islamist terror in Germany remains serious, especially after the increase in anti -Semitic incidents since the terrorist attack on Israel on October 7th.
