German authorities have banned the largest 'Reich citizen' group, known as the 'Kingdom of Germany,' and arrested four of its leaders in nationwide raids.
The group is an extremist far-right organization that rejects the legitimacy of the German state and seeks to establish a parallel government. Officials say the group posed a threat to Germany's democratic order by creating a 'counter-state.' The crackdown is part of broader efforts to combat far-right extremism in the country.
The move underscores Germany's commitment to upholding its democratic institutions against anti-government movements.
