Germany arrested five people accused of participating in a right-wing terror cell that sought to attack migrants and undermine the country’s democratic system.

The individuals — all juveniles — are suspected of being part of an extremist group that called itself Letzte Verteidigungswelle (Last Defensive Wave), the Federal Prosecutors Office said in a statement on Wednesday.
