The concern of Muslims in Germany to increase sabotage against mosques

  Millions of Muslims in Germany are worried about the growing wave of hatred against Islam and sabotage and attacks against mosques in the country. Kemal Ergon, head of the Muslim group in Germany, says that more mosques have received threatening letters in recent weeks signed by the neo-Nazi pseudonym "NSU 2.0". He added that it is unfortunate that in many cases of mosque fires, which can kill many people, the perpetrators are not identified or arrested. According to official statistics, in the first three months of this year (2023), there were 124 attacks against Muslims, including verbal and physical attacks, threatening letters and burning of mosques in Germany. The most recent statistics show that the German police recorded at least 610 hate crimes against Islam across the country last year (2022).

 Demonstration against hatred against Islam About 62 mosques were attacked in Germany between January and December last year and about 39 people were injured as a result of sabotage and acts of violence against Muslims. Germany with a population of more than 84 million people and about 5.3 million Muslims, is considered the second largest Muslim country in Western Europe after France. In recent years, Germany has seen a rise in racism and Islamophobia, fueled by neo-Nazi propaganda and the far-right AfD, which exploits the migrant crisis and tries to terrorize migrants.
