A total of 37 attacks have taken place against Turkish institutions in 2018 in Germany.
It has been noted that the attacks have visibly increased after Turkey launched “Operation Olive Branch” on Jan. 20 to clear militant groups from Afrin in northwestern Syria amid growing threats posed from the region.
The number of attacks against Turkish institutions in the country was 13 in 2017.
According to the report, several mosques, cultural institutions and restaurants belonging to the Turkish community have been targeted.
State-run Anadolu Agency noted the attacks came amid threats from groups linked to the outlawed PKK to carry out more violence in Germany.
