German Police and Special Forces raided four flats and two offices in Berlin, even as experts predicted that Germany could be the target of a terrorist attack by ISIS, also known as Daesh.

German public support for bombing missions against the sick terror group in Iraq and Syria could make it a ISIS target.

Berlin police spokesman Stefan Redlich said the raids specifically concern possible plans for an attack in Germany, even more specifically in Berlin.

Two of the properties that were searched were an asylum seeker's home in Hanover and another in Attendorn in the Sauerland region.

As revealed in Daily Star Online, ISIS hate manuals boast about infiltrating Europe and wreaking havoc with terror attacks as part of its apocalyptic vision.

Berlin was the centre of the operation where police swooped on four apartments and two business premises.

They were carried out to prevent 'severely violent attacks,' police said.
