Josef Schuster—leader of Germany’s Jewish council—is in the news as investigations shift to Iran-linked plots against Jewish targets; he’s been president since 2014.
The Times of Israel, The Independent, AP News and The Independent report that a Danish national, Ali S., and an Afghan associate, Tawab M., have been indicted in Hamburg for involvement with Iran’s Revolutionary Guards. Prosecution says the pair planned murder and arson attacks in Germany against Jewish figures and businesses, with allegations of scouting Berlin sites and seeking weapons.
