The number of right -wing extremists motivated in Germany is increasing rapidly. The record number that was only set up in 2023 was again surpassed in the previous year – around 900 cases.
According to this, a total of 3453 “correct attacks” – almost 900 more than 2023 were measured in 2024, when a maximum value was measured in the number series since 2014. This is the result of a statistics published on Tuesday by the German Association of Advisory Centers for Struck Right, Racist and Anti -Semitic Violence.
According to the information, a total of 4681 people were affected in 2024 “directly due to law, racist and anti -semitic violence” – this number also represents a maximum value since 2014.
Berlin as the “leader”
Most acts of violence were available in Berlin (366), North Rhine-Westphalia (294), Saxony (213) and Bavaria (211). In a total of 1794 cases, racism was the motive for extremist crimes with right -wing wheels, the authors of the study stated. This is followed by attacks on political opponents (542), anti -Semitism (354) and LGBTIQ Hostility (344). Most acts of violence were therefore threats and coercion (1212), so simple physical damage (1143) and dangerous physical injury (681).
Growing willingness to violence through the spread of extremely correct content
Judith Porath from the board of the German Association of Advisory Centers explains that the increase can only be understood in the context of increasing social acceptance and distribution of extreme law, minority and democratic attitude and anti-migration discoursing “. This creates a growing willingness to violence.
Porath calls for a “national action plan to combat extremism, racism and anti -semitism of the new government of Germany.
