German police arrested eight members of the far-right group Saxonian Separatists, which is accused of planning a military coup to establish a Nazi-esque regime in eastern Germany. Prosecutors allege the group, formed in 2020, underwent paramilitary training for an armed takeover of government structures, targeting 'unwanted groups' for removal through ethnic cleansing. More than 450 security personnel were involved in the raids across Germany and Poland, underscoring the growing threat of far-right extremism in the country, with a previous coup plot also uncovered in 2022 linked to the Reichsbürger movement.
