Danish Terror Plot Suspects Linked to Hamas

Seven suspects arrested across Denmark, Germany, and the Netherlands in connection with a thwarted terror plot targeting Jewish institutions in Europe have been confirmed to have links to Hamas.

Danish authorities have confirmed that seven suspects involved in a thwarted terror plot in December have links to the Islamist movement Hamas.
The suspects were arrested in Denmark, Germany, and the Netherlands, with the plot reportedly targeting Jewish institutions in Europe.
Danish prosecutor Anders Larsson confirmed the links to Hamas during a court hearing, but the case was heard behind closed doors and no further details were provided.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had previously stated that the goal of the thwarted attack was to kill innocent civilians on European soil, and that Hamas has been working to expand its operations to Europe.
Danish Justice Minister Peter Hummelgaard stated that the alleged connection to Hamas confirms the serious threat against Denmark, but expressed confidence in the country's strong police and intelligence services.
