The United Arab Emirates on August 14 voiced concern over Germany’s release of a suspected Israeli spy on bail in a case over a falsified passport linked to the killing of a Hamas leader in Dubai. On August 13, German authorities released Uri Brodsky, pending a decision on whether he was involved in the falsification of the German passport linked to the killing. Abdurahim Al-Awadhi, a top UAE Foreign Ministry official, “expressed concern that Brodsky has been released on bail and granted the freedom to return to Israel while the case against him continues. The UAE has saught assurances that Brodsky is in no way connected with the murder of Mahmoud Al-Mabhouh in Dubai,” Awadhi said in a statement.
