Hundreds of police officers have searched the properties of Hamas members and followers in Germany following a formal ban on any activity by or in support of the militant group.

The German government implemented the ban on November 2 and dissolved Samidoun, a group that was behind a celebration in Berlin of Hamas’ October 7 attack on Israel.
