Mossad behind German blacklisting of Hezbollah: Israeli TV

Zionist regime’s Mossad spy agency has reportedly been behind Germany's recent decision to blacklist Lebanon’s resistance movement Hezbollah.

According to Press TV, Berlin on Thursday designated Hezbollah as a “terrorist organization,” banned all its activities in the European country and ordered raids on sites police claimed were linked to the movement.

Citing Israelis unnamed officials, Israel's Channel 12 news reported Saturday that Mossad had provided Germans with information on Hezbollah’s activities on its soil.

The spy agency, the television, said, had carried out a months-long delicate operation to assess the movement's operations in Germany and presented its findings to German intelligence and law agencies.

“The move is the result of many months of work with all parties in Germany. The heads of services were required to present explicit evidence and legal proof… linking the organization to significant terrorist activity, and that is what we did,” one official said.

According to the official, head of the German intelligence organization BND Bruno Kahl is a close friend of Mossad.

Berlin has been a longtime backer of Israel, providing billions of dollars in aid enabling the occupation of Palestine.

On Thursday, Israel was effusive in its praise of Germany, with the regime's Foreign Minister Israel Katz hailing the blacklisting as a "very important decision".

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu also welcomed the decision, calling on ”all peace-loving countries" to follow Germany's lead.
