   German  prosecutors  say  Polish authorities have arrested a suspected
   Israeli intelligence agent wanted in connection with the assassination
   of a Palestinian militant in Dubai.
   A  spokesman  for the German federal prosecutor's office said Saturday
   that  the  suspect,  Uri  Brodsky, was arrested in early June upon his
   arrival in Poland.
   He was accused of obtaining an illegal German passport.
   Police in Dubai have said a team of assassins used forged passports to
   conduct  an  operation  in  January  to kill a senior Hamas commander,
   Mahmoud al-Mabhou.
   Dubai  has  accused  Israel's  Mossad  spy  agency of being behind the
   killing.  Israel has said there is no proof to back that claim.
