What are the primary motivations and targets of the violent acts attributed to these neo-Nazi groups, and what broader context informs these actions?

The raids, focusing on attacks including the theft of an antifa T-shirt and an assault on a man wearing an antifa emblem, highlight the ongoing conflict between far-right groups and anti-fascist activists in Berlin. The targeted individuals are associated with a series of violent incidents concentrated in the Marzahn-Hellersdorf district, underscoring the localized nature of the threat. The timing of the raids, shortly before a counter-demonstration planned by the neo-Nazis against the Berlin CSD, suggests a proactive effort to maintain public order.
