A 20-year-old Pakistani man, identified as Mohammed Joseph Khan, has been charged with allegedly plotting to attack Jews in New York. The Justice Department officials revealed that the attack was planned to coincide with the first anniversary of the October 7th Hamas terror attacks in Israel.
Khan had been under surveillance by federal law enforcement for nearly a year before his arrest near the US-Canada border. Court documents indicate that Khan discussed his plans on an encrypted messaging app, unknowingly speaking to undercover law enforcement officers posing as accomplices.
