Israeli intelligence has supplied Germany and Denmark with crucial information indicating that several criminal organizations within their borders are allegedly operating according to an Iranian agenda, said security sources in Tel Aviv.
Sources revealed on Sunday that these organizations are purportedly utilizing members affiliated with Hamas to execute terrorist operations targeting Israeli embassies, mission headquarters, institutions, and synagogues in both countries and across Europe.
European authorities independently uncovered evidence suggesting that these criminal groups have significantly progressed in advancing Iranian plans. The alleged mastermind behind these activities, Hamas official Khalil Kharaz, reportedly made visits and sent correspondences that unveiled a broad spectrum of the alleged plans.
On Saturday, the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, released a statement on behalf of the Mossad and Shin Bet agencies stating that European countries arrested suspects allegedly involved in plans by Hamas to attack Israeli and Jewish targets abroad in December.
"On December 14, 2023, the security and enforcement authorities in Denmark and Germany announced the extensive arrest of suspects in Europe who have since been subject to legal proceedings."
Gathered intelligence includes "information on the intention to attack the Israeli Embassy in Sweden, the acquisition of UAVs, and the use of elements from criminal organizations in Europe."
The report added that “Hamas works to promote attacks against targets in the Middle East, Africa, and Europe under the command of the organization's senior leadership." Among them, Saleh al-Arouri, Azzam Akre, Khalil Haraz, and Samir Pandi, who were killed last week in the southern suburb of Beirut.
Until their elimination, they were key factors in Hamas' activities worldwide.
Hamas' activity in Europe was led by Khalil Haraz, until his death in Lebanon in November. Kharaz was under the command of Azzam Akre. He was in charge of some of the infrastructure discovered in Denmark, the Netherlands, and Germany last December.
