Car crash into crowd of people in Magdeburg, right-wing extremists mobilize in

After the deadly attack in Magdeburg, the far-right extremist scene in Germany is mobilizing.

Attacks on migrants are increasing.

The motive of the Magdeburg attacker for the deadly attack on the Christmas market is still unclear.

It is only known that he is a Saudi citizen and is in custody.

But since the attack, the far-right scene in Germany has begun to spread hate speech against migrants.

"I have never experienced such a hostile and threatening atmosphere before," says an automotive engineering student in Magdeburg.

This was reported by the Salam violence prevention center in Saxony-Anhalt.

The organization has noticed a significant increase in incidents against people perceived as foreigners by right-wing extremists. 

Alleged migrants are called terrorists, criminals and scum on the streets, some of them are pushed and spat on, Salam's report says. 

The threat has reached the point where migrant communities are warning each other through WhatsApp and Facebook groups, advising people to avoid going out in public.

The paradox of the situation: The attacker was Islamophobic and sympathized with the AfD

The fact that the author may have Islamophobic and far-right views is a paradox of the situation, radicalism researcher Hans Goldenbaum from Salam tells Mitteldeutscher Rundfunk radio.

This shows the power of far-right discourse and how impervious it is to reality. 

Since last Friday's attack, neo-Nazi parties, organizations, and individuals in Germany have been mobilizing nationwide.

They are calling for the mass deportation of people from Germany.

Hundreds of neo-Nazis gathered at a far-right demonstration in Magdeburg on Sunday, December 22, 2024.

There were also attacks on journalists during the protest. One of the speakers at the event was Thorsten Heise, a neo-Nazi official with a criminal record.

He had previously attempted to run over a refugee with his car. Videos from the event show Heisen urging participants to infiltrate organizations, firefighters and authorities.

Journalists report that participants chanted "Germany, wake up," a slogan of Hitler's Nazis. Its use is prohibited by law in Germany.

Call to stop political instrumentalization

Right-wing extremism expert in Magdeburg, David Begrich, from the association Miteinander eV warns of further political instrumentalization of the attack.

The Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, partly far-right, has announced mass protests in Magdeburg.

In an interview with DW, Begrich sharply criticizes these activities.

After an attack that left five dead and nearly 200 injured, the victims and those affected should be the center of attention.

A deep sense of shock prevails in Magdeburg. This attack has caused a serious wound to the city, he says.

While there are still people fighting for their lives in hospital from the consequences of the attack, any instrumentalization is unacceptable, adds Begrich. The fate of the victims must now be in focus.

The consequences can be analyzed later. The city's society does not want to be exploited.

Despite fake news, rumors and attempts to exploit this serious event on social media, David Begrich describes the city of Magdeburg as genuinely affected: The city is more united./DW
