Overview

• An official X account of Linksjugend 'solid' Frankfurt posted a message about Jewish youths removed from a Vueling flight, stating the ejection did not happen while the plane was in the air; the posts were later deleted.
• The local Linksjugend apologized, said a single person published the messages without approval, revoked that person’s access, suspended them, and confirmed they are no longer a member of the group or party.
• The Staatsanwaltschaft Frankfurt has opened preliminary inquiries, and police said the material will receive legal assessment that could lead to a formal investigation.
• Political and civic figures condemned the posts, with Meron Mendel of the Bildungsstätte Anne Frank calling the wording a call to murder Jewish children and youth, and SPD and Junge Union officials demanding consequences.
• The group pledged to tighten its social‑media rules as the Vueling deplaning that prompted the post remains disputed, with the airline citing disruptive behavior and participants alleging antisemitic treatment.
