Muslims in Germany will organize marches in the country to mourn the victims of the far-right terror attack that killed nine people Wednesday. Friday sermons will also be translated into German to denounce hate and terrorism.
Nine people were killed and several others injured, Wednesday, in a suspected far-right attack in Germany. The attacker, who was found dead in his apartment, wrote a manifesto in which he said that he hates «non-white» people.
Earlier in February, German authorities arrested 12 men who were planning to target several mosques in the country. Inspired by the Christchurch terror attack, the group has been sowing seeds of fear among the Muslim and Moroccan communities in Germany.
On Saturday, the Baerum mosque in the suburbs of Oslo was the scene of a shooting carried by a Norwegian man. The young terror suspect has acted alone, according to the Norwegian police which are investigating the shooting as a terror attack. The assailant is described as a far-right sympathizer who had supremacist motivations.
Put in place on August 1st, the new burqa ban is seen as a «discriminatory» law by Dutch-Moroccans living in the Netherlands. Passed in 2018, the law was dubbed «Islamophobic» and provocative to the Muslim community in the country.
