German police raid a far-right terrorist organization, arrest 25 in what they call a plot to overthrow government. Suspects include several former members of the Bundeswehr, Germany’s military, and one active member.

Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann said the authorities must “dry out this brown soup”.
