German Authorities Raid Eritrean Opposition Group Over Terrorism Suspicions

Investigators target 17 suspected leaders of Brigade N’Hamedu in coordinated raids across six German states and Denmark.

The raids, conducted on March 26, 2025, targeted 19 locations in Germany and Denmark as part of an ongoing terrorism investigation.
Brigade N’Hamedu, an Eritrean opposition group, is accused of forming a domestic terrorist organization and using violence to disrupt pro-Eritrean government events.
The group is linked to violent incidents at Eritrea festivals in Gießen (2022) and Stuttgart (2023).
Authorities are focusing on 17 identified suspects believed to hold leadership roles in the German branch of the group.
No arrests were made during the operation, which aims to substantiate existing suspicions of terrorism-related activities.
