Arson attack against the car of a neonazi
Hamburg 18 august

Misterious arson attack against a luxurious car parked in Steilhoop. Unknown people placed some incendíary liquid on the roof of a Jaguar, smashed its windows and than they set the car on fire.
Neighbours noticed the fire and called the police. The car belongs to a known 39 years-old neonazi, therefore the police believes a political motivation to be behind the act.
The authors of the attack left no traces behind them, nor a communique poppep up yet.

Protest against neo-nazi demonstration, fascist car burned, barricades...
Berlin 25th August

Around 800 people took part in the protest against a neo-nazi demonstration in Berlin-Neukölln under the motto „No to the neo-nazi demo - Together against racism and exclusion“.
500 people took part in a counter-demonstration organised by left-parties and antifascist groups.
Few hundred antifascists got close to the neo-nazi march and screamed slogans against them. Attempts to block their demo had been stopped by a huge amount of police forces, made of 800 riotcops. Few groups managed to build some barricades with trashbins and set them on fire. A car, which was clearly recognizable as belonging to a fascist (having also a huge sticker of the neo-nazi trademark „thor steinar“) got burned down.

Arson attacks against neo-nazi cars and color against neo-nazi shops
Biesenthal (Brandenburg) 28th August

Following an arson attack against two cars belonging to a NPD (german neo-nazi party) member in Biesenthal, the state attorney from Frankfurt (Oder) investigates because of „suspicion of arson“.
There would be a communique which would prove the political motivation behind the actions. As main reason would be declared that the NPD member would use the cars for the upcoming NPD election-campaign (ndt: in september communal-elections are due to happen in Brandenburg, Berlin's regions, a campaign started from antifa groups, autonomous people and citizens is running against the entry of neo-nazi in the local government)
Moreover, the authors claimed also responsability for two other actions (graffitis and color) aganst two pubs in Königs Wusterhausen and Schönow.
As reason they gave the fact that neo-nazis would use these places to host their events.
Therefore the state attorney investigates as well because of „property damage“.
The police declared that „autonomous groups from Brandenburg“ took responsability for the actions.
In the night to tuesday the parking-place as two cars of the former NPD regional-representative burned down. His private house was enough faraway, therefore there hasn't been a real risk for the family who was asleep. One does not yet know the exact amount of damages.
