SourceGermany designated Lebanese militant and political group Hezbollah as a terror organization on Thursday. After outlawing the Iran-backed militant group, dawn raids were carried out at mosques to prevent the destruction of any evidence linking individuals or groups to Hezbollah.
German police raided four mosques with Hezbollah connections and private residences of the group's leaders in Berlin, Bremen, Dortmund, Münster, and Recklinghausen.
"As the authority responsible for issuing the ban, the Federal Ministry of the Interior, Building, and Community is of the opinion that Hezbollah openly calls for the violent elimination of the State of Israel and questions the right of the State of Israel to exist," the German ministry said in a*statement. "The organization is therefore fundamentally against the concept of international understanding, regardless of whether it presents itself as a political, social, or military structure."
