German ‘Nazi’ youth camp raided
A youth camp run by a neo-Nazi group has been broken up by police near Rostock in northern Germany.
Thirty-nine teenagers and children who were attending the camp have been returned to their homes, police said.
The neo-Nazi group that ran the camp had described it as a youth adventure holiday. The police raid uncovered racist propaganda and Nazi material.
The head of Germany’s equivalent of the FBI told a newspaper neo-Nazis were adopting increasingly violent tactics.
In an interview with Der Tagesspiegel, Joerg Ziercke said neo-Nazis were “attacking left-wingers and police officers with an aggression that can be seen as a change in strategy”.
