The Federal Public Prosecutor General is taking action against young men allegedly belonging to a suspected right-wing extremist terror cell. Five suspects were arrested early this morning in Brandenburg, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania and Hesse in a police operation against an association that calls itself the "Last Wave of Defense".
The suspected members of the group, some of whom are still very young, are said to have planned attacks on refugees and political dissidents. As the Karlsruhe authorities also announced, officers also began searching a total of 13 properties in Saxony and Thuringia. These measures were directed against three other German nationals who are already in custody.
