German authorities have arrested five teenagers, aged 14 to 18, accused of planning and carrying out arson attacks on buildings housing asylum seekers.
The group, linked to a right-wing extremist organization called 'The Last Wave of Defence,' allegedly aimed to attack migrants and political rivals. Prosecutors say the teens saw themselves as defenders of the 'German nation' and sought to undermine Germany's democratic order. Officials warn that far-right groups are increasingly recruiting young people.
The arrests highlight growing concerns about youth involvement in domestic terrorism and far-right extremism in Germany.
