3 alleged Hamas members arrested in Germany on suspicion of plotting attacks on Jewish institutions

BERLIN: Three alleged members of the Palestinian militant group Hamas were arrested Wednesday on suspicion of plotting attacks on Israeli or Jewish institutions in Germany, officials said.

Howe confident Newcastle will find ‘X factor’

LONDON:Eddie Howe is confident that goal-shy Newcastle will discover their “X factor” as they adapt to life without star striker Alexander Isak. The 26-year-old Sweden international joined Premier League champions Liverpool for a British-record fee of £125 million ($169 million) on transfer deadline day, ending a protracted saga. Howe plugged the huge gap in his front line with a club-record £69 million swoop for Germany international Nick Woltemade late in the transfer window while Yoane Wissa arrived from Brentford in a deal worth £55 million. Woltemade, 23, is still finding his feet in the Premier League while a knee injury has prevented 29-year-old DR Congo forward Wissa from making his debut. “In an ideal world you have a full pre-season to iron out any issues you have,” Newcastle manager Howe said on Tuesday. “You’re forming your partnerships and team relationships so they’re formed for the start of the season. “We’re in the position where we’re going to have to do it as we play.

Newcastle’s new signing Wissa to miss Wolves match

NEWCASTLE: Newcastle United’s new recruit Yoane Wissa will have to wait for his debut after an injury suffered on international duty ruled him out of Saturday’s Premier League match against Wolverhampton Wanderers, manager Eddie Howe said on Friday. Wissa was signed for a fee of 55 million pounds ($74.43 million), following a protracted transfer saga in which his previous club Brentford repeatedly rejected bids from Newcastle for the forward, leading to a stand-off. The 29-year-old played in a pair of World Cup qualifiers for DR Congo this month, scoring against South Sudan and Senegal before suffering a knee injury. Asked if he would be fit to face Wolves in the home fixture, Howe told reporters: “Unfortunately not, no. He won’t make this game, I saw him for the first time yesterday. “He’s feeling the effects of the injury he sustained just before he came off. So we are going to have to see how he is... I think he will go away for tests and maybe see a specialist to see. Unfortunately I can’t give you that update.”
