Greek police arrest Palestinian suspect on Crete over Hamas-linked plot
Greek police detained a 37-year-old Palestinian electrician on the island of Crete on suspicion of planning attacks linked to Hamas, AP News reported. The suspect was initially identified by the New York Post as being involved in a plot to target an Israeli cruise ship. Authorities said the arrest forms part of a wider investigation that also includes four Palestinians held in Cyprus.
Cypriot law enforcement has been cooperating with Greek officials as the case developed. The detainee's alleged affiliation with Hamas and the broader network remain under investigation.
