A man allegedly linked to Hamas has been arrested in Cyprus as part of an international investigation into plans for terrorist attacks in European countries. The suspect, Kamel M., was arrested at Larnaca Airport following a European arrest warrant and is accused of belonging to a foreign terrorist organization. Authorities link him to the transport of 300 rounds of ammunition intended for attacks against Israeli or Jewish targets in Germany and other European countries. Investigations have taken place in Berlin and Vienna, where a weapons cache was discovered, while another suspect was arrested in London for transporting weapons.
