Libyan held over alleged Israel embassy attack plot, German prosecutors say

German police have arrested a Libyan suspected of belonging to the Islamic State group and of having planned an attack on the Israeli embassy, federal prosecutors told AFP Saturday.

"There is some suggestion he had planned an attack on the Israeli embassy in Berlin," said a spokesman for the prosecutor's office, adding that the suspect was also thought to be affiliated with the Islamic State group.

Bild daily reported that police commandoes had stormed a flat in Bernau north of Berlin in the evening and arrested the 28-year-old man.
The newspaper said German authorities had acted on a tip-off from a foreign intelligence agency.

Israel's ambassador to Berlin, Ron Prosor, thanked German authorities for "ensuring the security of our embassy" in a message on the social media platform X.
