Germany arrested a Libyan citizen suspected of plotting an attack against Israelโ€™s embassy in Berlin, the federal prosecutorโ€™s office said on Sunday.

The authorities identified the man only as Omar A. and said he is โ€œstrongly suspectedโ€ of supporting the terror organization Islamic State (IS) and intended to carry-out an attack with firearms on the Israeli embassy. He would have discussed this online with a member of IS, the prosecutorโ€™s office said in a statement.

The German government is under pressure to increase security measures and address migration after a series of violent attacks allegedly perpetrated by people who entered the country as asylum-seekers, like the knife attack in the western city of Solingen in August.
