June 13, 2026

In Larnaca, three Palestinians were arrested while planning a terrorist attack on behalf of Hamas. The suspects were making final preparations in a villa and had connections with a 41-year-old Hamas leader living in Malaysia. The attack had been planned for seven months and involved at least six other countries. Authorities have collected numerous testimonies and confessions related to the case, as well as significant financial amounts. The network appears to have been well-organized and was planning broader attacks.
