"Mass Protests in Germany and Austria Against Far-Right Resurgence"

Thousands of Austrians protested in several cities against the rise of the far right, following similar demonstrations in Germany. The protests were organized by a broad alliance of civil society organizations, political groups, and trade unions, with a focus on defending democracy and opposing right-wing extremism, antisemitism, and racism. The demonstrations were sparked by revelations of a secret meeting involving far-right figures discussing a "masterplan" for mass deportation. The protests come amid growing concerns over the influence of far-right groups and their connections across Europe.
