From East to West, Europe is in a war footing, with extremist groups cropping up, trying to disrupt normal functioning of the nations.
Now, it arises that an Italian neo-Nazi group has been accused of planning to allegedly assassinate Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, as well as WEF chairman Klaus Schwab.
Last week, twelve alleged extremist members of the far-Right supremacist group called the ‘Werwolf Division’ have been arrested by anti-terrorism police.
Little did they know that authorities were intercepting their chats and collecting their communications.
The neo-Nazis called Meloni, from the Right-wing Brothers of Italy party, a ‘fascist who persecutes fascists.’
The group has been discussing plans to attack her since 2023.
The Telegraph reported:
“Italy’s national anti-terrorism prosecutor, Giovanni Melillo, said: ‘This is an important investigation, which is a development of another one currently under consideration by the Court of Naples’.
‘Both demonstrate the extreme danger of neo-Nazi networks branching out in Europe, which have long been underestimated’.”
The warrants allege that the group was in advanced stages of preparation for ‘serious’ attacks.
The extremists had identified sites near both the parliament building and the prime minister’s office in Rome for violent attacks – and were actively searching for snipers to carry out the hit.
“’There’s a hotel in front of Parliament from where you can shoot from above’, one member allegedly said. Another suspect reportedly said, ‘Find me a sniper and we will implement your plan’.”
The alleged extremists have been charged with terrorism, propaganda and incitement to commit racial, ethnic and religious discrimination.
They are also formally accused of illegal possession of firearms.
“The investigation was led by the DIGOS anti-terror police in Bologna and Naples and involved raids on 25 suspects, aged between 19 and 76, accused of promoting, organizing and participating in the Werwolf Division, later renamed the New Dawn Division.”
