Germany conducts massive raids against Hezbollah-linked Islamist group

Germany's interior minister on Thursday announced raids in seven regions of the country against an Islamist group suspected of links to the Lebanese Shia Muslim-leaning terrorist group Hezbollah.

"At a time when many Jews feel threatened, Germany will not tolerate either Islamist propaganda or the incitement of anti-Semitism," Nancy Feiser said, adding that the police action was aimed at the Hamburg Islamic Center and five related groups.
