Germany charges teens in alleged right-wing extremist group with attempted murder

Germany's federal prosecutor brought charges Thursday against eight suspects for their alleged membership in a “right-wing extremist terrorist” group that allegedly aimed to destabilize the country’s democratic system by carrying out attacks on migrants and political opponents. The prosecutors also charged the seven alleged members and one supporter of the group, some of them teenagers, of attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder, and grievous bodily harm. According to the federal prosecutor’s office, the group sees itself as the “final authority” for defending the “German nation.”
