Ban on far-right antisemitic, anti-Israel German magazine lifted by federal court

In 2020, Germany’s federal intelligence agency launched a probe into the magazine Compact due to allegations that it disseminated xenophobia and conspiracy theories.

The 2024 ban on a popular far-right German magazine known for its antisemitic and anti-Israel content was lifted on Tuesday by the Federal Ministry of the Interior and Home Affairs, the Federal Administrative Court announced.
