On April 20, 2025, Hitler’s birthday, the Russian neo-Nazi NS/WP (National Socialist/White Power) group posted a video address featuring a member pledging a return to “direct action.” The video concludes with footage of an arson attack, in which a Russian police vehicle is set on fire. The speaker, wearing a clown mask and standing in front of a Nazi flag, claimed to speak on behalf of the “autonomous sabotage group NS/WP.”
