"Letzte Verteidigungswelle" is a group of young neo-Nazis operating in several federal states. Since last year, it has been gaining followers through social networks such as Instagram, TikTok and Telegram. There are other similar groups, such as "Jung und Stark", "Der Störtrupp" and "Deutsche Jugend Voran".
Members of this association consider themselves the highest authority in protecting the "German nation." Their goal is to bring about the collapse of the democratic system in the Federal Republic of Germany through acts of violence, primarily against migrants and political opponents"
Representatives of "Letzte Verteidigungswelle" have already carried out several attacks. For example, in October 2024 at the Kultberg venue in Altdöbern, Brandenburg.
As a result of the arson, the building was almost completely destroyed, and material damage amounted to hundreds of thousands of euros.
