Officials arrest man who allegedly promised to get weapons for attack on Jewish targets in Germany

On Wednesday, Tawab M., an Afghan national, was arrested in Denmark on suspicion of inciting homicide related to a planned attack on Jewish targets in Germany after contact with a Danish national.
In October, Germany ordered the closure of all three Iranian consulates, leaving the Islamic Republic of Iran with only its embassy in Berlin.
In late May, prosecutors say Tawab M. promised Ali S., a Danish national, to obtain a weapon and persuade a third person to attack Jewish targets in Germany; Tawab M. allegedly has a history of procuring weapons in Denmark.
An arrest warrant was issued last month and he will be brought before a judge in Germany after extradition to determine custody, but timing for extradition remains unclear.
German security authorities have stepped up protection for Jewish and Israeli facilities after a 12-day war between Israel and Iran in June.
