Police Raid Targets Young Neo-Nazis

Published: 2024-10-23

In a coordinated operation, police in Berlin and Brandenburg conducted raids against young neo-Nazi suspects, aged 16 to 23, linked to several right-wing extremist groups.

The raids, involving 160 officers, targeted nine individuals accused of violent crimes, including robbery, assault, and weapons violations.

The suspects are believed to be associated with organizations like "Jung und Stark" and "Deutsche Jugend voran," considered extremist by authorities.

During the raids, police seized illegal weapons, pyrotechnics, and stolen items.

The investigation follows a series of attacks, including assaults on individuals wearing anti-fascist symbols.

No arrests have been made yet, but the operation highlights ongoing efforts to curb extremist activities in the region.
