A suspected Hamas terrorist was arrested in Greece on Sunday for allegedly plotting to attack an Israeli cruise ship, according to officials.

The 37-year-old Palestinian electrician, who has not been identified, was taken into custody on the island of Crete after officials claim he placed an online order for “chemical agents” that could be used to make explosives.

Authorities discovered cell phones, a laptop, external hard drives and bank cards after searching homes in Crete and the Greek capital, Athens.

His arrest is tied to that of four other Palestinians in Cyprus who are being investigated for “terrorism-related charges” and “belonging to a criminal organization,” officials said.
