The news comes a week after the Department of Justice (DOJ) announced Al-Saadi’s arrest. The DOJ said he was charged with six counts of terrorism-related offenses “for his activities as an operative of Kata’ib Hizballah and Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC),” including his involvement in nearly 20 attacks and attempted attacks throughout Europe and the U.S.
The DOJ said said filings show the attacks included bombings, stabbings, arson, and plots against synagogues and U.S.-linked facilities.
