Berlin, Aug. 26 -- German military has seen almost a reported 100 personnel being expelled for far right leanings by 2024, reports German media Tagesschau. The reduction in the number of soldiers in the Bundeswehr comes amid Berlin's response to a request from Bundestag member Zada Salikhovic from the Left faction.
"The number of cases of right-wing extremism in the Bundeswehr has increased: in 2024, 97 soldiers were dismissed due to right-wing extremist incidents," as per the portal.
This marks a significant increase in the number of suspended personnel, with 62 having been suspended in 2023 on allegations of racism, Nazi sympathies, or having right-wing political affiliations.
