Oct. 1 (UPI) -- Three men suspected of being Hamas members were arrested on a number of charges by authorities in Germany.

German federal prosecutors said Wednesday that three men arrested in Berlin on suspicion of being members of Iran's terror syndicate Hamas were accused of gathering weaponry in order to carry out scores of planned attacks on Israeli or Jewish institutions, according to The Washington Post, CBS News and CNN.

"Since at least the summer of 2025," prosecutors stated, the three have been "involved in procuring firearms and ammunition" for Hamas.

They added two of the men were German citizens and the third identified as Lebanese.
