Germany's interior ministry banned the right-wing Compact magazine on Tuesday, accusing it of being a "mouthpiece of the right-wing extremist scene" and inciting hatred of Jews and foreigners. Compact magazine, widely seen as a mouthpiece of the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party's radical wing, has a circulation of 40,000 and a wide-reaching social media presence. The ban also applies to Compact's subsidiary, Conspect Film, and prohibits any continuation of previous activities. REUTERS/Swantje SteinĀ© Thomson Reuters
