Prosecutors in Germany have announced that seven people have been indicted in an alleged terror plot as the anniversary of the October 7th terrorist attacks on civilians in Israel looms.
The group allegedly secured weapons for Hamas terrorists with the goal of launching terrorist attacks alligning with the second anniversary of October 7.
According to the prosecutor’s office, “All of the accused belong to the foreign terrorist organization Hamas. Some time ago, the organization’s military wing (the so-called Qassam Brigades) began establishing weapons depots in Europe. No later than July 2025, Hamas planned a concrete assassination in Germany or Austria targeting representatives of Israel, people of Jewish faith, or persons with pro-Israel views.”
By the time of the arrests, the group had obtained: a functioning, fully automatic rifle, 13 pistols and more than 700 rounds of ammunition.
Officials named the suspects as:
Abed Al G. — German citizen
Wael F.M. — born in Lebanon
Yousif C. — Danish citizen
Borhan El-K. — born in Lebanon
Ahmad I. — German citizen
Kamel M. — born in Lebanon
Mohammad S. — Bulgarian citizen
Additionally, an 8th suspect, Mohammed A. (reportedly linked to Hamas leadership), is being prosecuted separately.
Officials note the cell was directed from an operational base in Turkey.
The 214-page indictment filed by German federal prosecutors also reveals the main targets included Israeli diplomats, Jewish community centers, and pro-Israel demonstrations.
Fox News reports:
According to the German paper Die Welt, “One of the accused was working as a confidential informant for Germany’s domestic intelligence agency. The files show that the informant continued reporting to his intelligence handler while allegedly failing to disclose the full extent of his own involvement in obtaining ammunition for the group.”
Sascha Adamek, a German journalist and the author of the 2026 book “Infiltration: Political Islam Continues Its Advance” told Fox News Digital that “Now the policy of previous federal governments is coming back to haunt them: until 2023 they allowed Hamas and its front organizations to use Germany as a ‘safe haven’ for fundraising and recruitment and also for the radicalization of young people. This dirty deal — that Hamas does not use violence in this country and is therefore left to operate freely — has long been obsolete.”
