Six Months On, Berlin Police Target Left-Wing Extremists Over Blackout

More than six months after an arson attack that caused a large-scale blackout in Berlin, police carried out a coordinated raid operation early on Tuesday, March 24.

The September 2025 outage affected almost 50,000 households and thousands of businesses. A claim of responsibility published on the left-wing extremist platform Indymedia by a group calling itself “Some Anarchists” said the attack aimed to expose what it described as the “unspeakable entanglement of research, science and technology with war, environmental destruction and social control.”
