Italian police, including the ROS Carabinieri and Digos, have broken up an extensive online neo-Nazi and white-supremacist network made up mostly of radicalized teenagers. Officers executed 17 search warrants targeting 14 minors and 3 adults, aged roughly 16 to 24, in cities across the country. The operation has drawn attention to the spread of extremist ideology among very young people online.

Why now: The unusually young age of the suspects and the scale of the coordinated raids are striking and news-worthy.
