| 00:00 | Raids on Islamist Network in Nine German Federal States | |
| 00:04 | The police have raided and searched the business premises of organisations | |
| 00:07 | connected to the Salafist scene in several German federal states, according to | |
| 00:10 | the people’s federal office for constitutional protection. The main targets of the crackdown | |
| 00:13 | were the offices of The Worldwide Resistance Help and Ansaar International, | |
| 00:17 | the Interior Ministry announced. The organisations claim | |
| 00:20 | to collect donations for humanitarian aid in Gaza, | |
| 00:23 | Somalia and Syria. There is evidence that the aid | |
| 00:27 | would especially benefit the Palestinian Hamas organization, | |
| 00:31 | according to authorities. The US, Israel and Germany | |
| 00:34 | classify Hamas as a terrorist organization. |
