Brazilian Police Arrest Third Man Suspected of Links to Hezbollah

Two informed sources, who requested to remain anonymous, told Reuters that "Brazilian police arrested another man today, Sunday, who is suspected of having connections to the group Hezbollah, raising the number of detainees with suspected ties to the group to three." They added that "the name of the detainee, who was arrested in the capital Brasilia, has not been disclosed, and an investigation is currently underway regarding his alleged connection to Hezbollah." Last week, Brazil apprehended two individuals in São Paulo while dismantling a cell believed to be associated with Hezbollah that was planning attacks on Jewish targets in Brazil.
