Germany Summons Iran Ambassador Over Alleged Jewish Spy Network

News summary

German authorities have arrested a Danish man, identified as Ali S., on suspicion of spying on Jewish sites and individuals in Berlin on behalf of Iranian intelligence. The suspect reportedly took photos of key locations, including the German-Israeli Society headquarters and the residence of the Central Council of Jews in Germany’s president, Josef Schuster, prompting concerns over intelligence operations targeting Jewish communities. Following the arrest, Germany summoned the Iranian ambassador to the Foreign Ministry to address the allegations, with German officials emphasizing zero tolerance for threats against Jewish life. The Iranian embassy in Berlin denied the accusations, calling them unfounded and part of a campaign to divert attention from Israeli actions against Iran. German Justice Minister Stefanie Hubig described the alleged spying as an outrageous operation, while Jewish organizations called for stronger political actions, including listing Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organization. The suspect was detained in Denmark and is being extradited to Germany for further investigation.
