AfD leads Saxony-Anhalt polls as Jewish council warns

Ahead of the 2026 state election in Saxony-Anhalt, polls show the far-right AfD at 40 percent, making it the strongest party. Josef Schuster, head of the Central Council of Jews in Germany, warned against AfD politicians, calling them 'declared opponents of our open society.' Meanwhile, Sahra Wagenknecht, founder of the BSW party, described parts of the federal government as 'right-wing extremist.' The reports also discuss potential reactions from the left-wing scene to an AfD victory and broader concerns about the party's plans.
