Spain Arrests Islamist Terrorist
(CNN) Al Goodman - Mohamed Echaabi, a Moroccan suspected of being an Islamic terrorist, was arrested on Thursday by Spanish police in Valencia, the Interior Ministry said Friday. He was planning targeted killings and other attacks in Spain and elsewhere in Europe, and had attempted to acquire firearms and explosives, the ministry said. Echaabi had traveled "to Gaza in 2011 with the goal of carrying out an action of suicidal character against Israeli interests."
