Denmark detains man suspected of seeking drones for Hamas terror attack
[IsraelTimes] A 28-year-old man was remanded in custody in Denmark today on suspicions of purchasing drones to be used in a Hamas “terrorist attack,” Danish intelligence says.Flemming Drejer, head of operations at Denmark’s PET intelligence service, says in a statement it believed that “this individual purchased drones intended for use by Hamas in a terrorist attack at an unknown location in Denmark or abroad.” Appearing before a court today, the man was remanded in custody until June 11. PET says the case has links to both Hamas and criminal gangs in Denmark, and is related to a number of arrests made in December 2023 as part of an operation to prevent a suspected planned “terrorist attack.” Six people were ordered detained at the time, four in absentia, among them the 28-year-old man, who Danish media reports said was a prominent figure in organized crime in Copenhagen. According to public broadcaster DR, the suspect had been extradited from Lebanon over a separate double murder case.
