The alleged conspirators of attack in Hamas appear before the German court on Thursday

The German authorities arrested three alleged members of Hamas suspected of having plotted attacks on Israeli or Jewish institutions in Germany, officials at the Associated Press told.

Two of the suspects arrested on Wednesday are German citizens. The office of the federal prosecutor described the third as being born in Lebanon.

They were only appointed Bed Al G., Wael FM and Ahmad I., in accordance with German privacy rules. The trio should appear in court on Thursday.

“During today’s arrests, various weapons, including an AK-47 assault rifle and several pistols, as well as a considerable amount of ammunition, were found,” the federal prosecutors said in a statement obtained by Reuters.
