Fact:
On April 3, 2017, the day Vladimir Putin was due to visit the city, a suicide bombing was carried out in the St. Petersburg metro, killing 15 people and injuring 64. An al-Qaeda affiliate, Imam Shamil Battalion, claimed responsibility.
“Berlin – The triangle on the wall of a house glows blood red. The message: Anyone who lives here is a potential target of the terrorist organization Hamas . The symbol is appearing more and more often in Germany, for example several times in June at the Humboldt University in Berlin. […] Israel has been at war since October 7 and the Hamas attack . And since then, anti-Semitic acts of violence have been on the rise in this country. Not only Jews, but "also people who are committed to protecting Jewish life are in danger," explains Alexander Ritzmann in an interview with IPPEN.MEDIA . He is a consultant at the Counter Extremism Project (CEP) in Berlin and has now published a guide for security authorities, among others. This guide is intended to help identify key figures in anti-Semitic movements. Because behind anti-Semitism lies a targeted agenda in which organized crime (OC) is also involved, says Ritzmann.”
