Tagesspiegel reports that the Federal Criminal Police Office (Bundeskriminalamt, or BKA) announced that more than 65 search warrants were executed, and many suspects questioned in connection with over 140 investigations.
The “Day of Action against Hate and Incitement Online,” coordinated by the BKA alongside state law enforcement agencies, is the twelfth such operation aimed at curbing illegal speech on the internet.
Prosecutors allege that many of the posts included criminal incitement to hatred (Volksverhetzung), insults against public figures, and the use of banned symbols linked to “unconstitutional or terrorist organisations.” Some suspects are also accused of endorsing or glorifying criminal acts.
According to the BKA, roughly two-thirds of the offending content came from purportedly far-right sources. One case cited involved a user on X (formerly Twitter) who allegedly posted: “Heil Hitler!! Once again. We are Germans and a successful nation. Male foreigners out.”
