MAINZ, Germany — Police raided homes, offices and refugee shelters across Germany early Thursday in a hunt for four suspected Algerian jihadists — including one linked to an ISIS training camp.
Special police forces confiscated “computers, mobile phones and notes,” according to a statement from Berlin police.
The raids targeted “four people from the jihadist scene” and were triggered by Berlin’s general prosecutor and conducted in coordination with Germany’s domestic intelligence service, the statement said.
One of the suspects was also being sought by Algerian officials for ISIS membership, officials said.
“We know that at least one of the men received military training” in an ISIS terror camp, Berlin police spokesman spokesman Stefan Redlich told NBC News.
