Security Message for U.S. Citizens:  
Establishment of a Restricted Zone in Hamburg

U.S. Embassy Berlin informs U.S. citizens that as a result of violent protests in December, the Hamburg police have established a 24/7 restricted zone covering a large area of the city of Hamburg, including the city’s nightlife area.

The restricted zone (“Gefahrengebiet”) gives police officers extra authority to stop, search, and ban people from the area.  It includes the red light district of the Reeperbahn, the Old Town, St. Pauli, and Altona Nord, including the Sternschanzen area (Rote Flora district).

Police require that all persons in public areas carry their passport or “Ausweis.”  If stopped without proper identification, persons may be detained by police without further justification.

At least four have been injured in an explosion near the Sharqiya Governorate’s Military Intelligence Headquarters in the city of Anshas midday Sunday, according to state TV.

The blast is believed to have been caused by a car laden with explosives detonating near the intelligence building, Director of Sharqiya’s Criminal Investigations Office Atef Khedr told Al-Ahram’s Arabic news website.

Army Spokesman Ahmed Ali confirmed on his official Facebook page Sunday that four soldiers had been injured by the blast which partially destroyed the building’s rear façade. He condemned the terrorist attacks targeting Egypt’s military and state facilities.

A security official told state news agency MENA Egyptian security forces have arrested a suspect in the explosion.

The police officer claimed that previous criminal record this man has  in Canada for drug related crime is in no way connected to today’s arrest.

Canadian police are in urgent need of decent information on this. Hezb’allah in fact relies on drug smuggling, manufacture and sale as one of the main methods of funding its terrorist operations around the world. As this perp is Iranian, I would be investigating him for working in multiple capacities with Hezb’allah on all counts so far.
