Schools in Duisburg, Germany will remain closed on Monday following the receipt of threatening letters from suspected right-wing extremists. A total of 20 schools, including comprehensive and secondary institutions, are impacted. One school, Gesamtschule Mitte, received threats declaring criminal actions to occur. While police regard these threats as unlikely serious, the closures serve to minimize risk. Some schools will shift to online learning during this period, and police will conduct awareness measures to address the threat. Investigations into the anonymous letters are ongoing.
The management of a comprehensive school in Duisburg received a letter on Friday containing threatening and right-wing extremist statements, prompting the closure of around 20 schools.
The police said they doubted the seriousness of the threats; however, school closures aim to minimize any possible residual risk while investigations are conducted.
