Study: One in Four Youth Groups in Germany Faces Far-Right Attacks
Frankfurt – September 07, 2026 -- Youth clubs, associations, and groups across Germany are reporting break-ins, threats, and physical attacks linked to far-right extremists, according to a new study cited exclusively by the Frankfurter Rundschau.
The findings come from the "Bedrohungsstudie 2026" (Threat Study 2026), compiled by education researcher Benno Hafeneger, education expert Jana Sämann, and Deutscher Bundesjugendring (DBJR) staff members Maximilian Lorenz and Lars Reisner. The study is set to be published in the November issue of the trade journal "deutsche jugend," though the Frankfurter Rundschau has already obtained a copy.
