A British court sentences three people to 29 years in prison after planning attacks on Jewish temples

A British court issued a sentence on Friday morning of varying prison terms totaling 29 years against three young men belonging to an extremist group that adopts neo-Nazi ideology after they were convicted of planning to carry out terrorist attacks on mosques and Jewish temples in England.

The three defendants are 34-year-old Christopher Ringrose, who was sentenced to 10 years in prison, 25-year-old Brogan Stewart, who was sentenced to 11 years, and 25-year-old Marco Pizzito, who was sentenced to 8 years.

Investigations revealed that the group believed in the outbreak of a racial war and had plans to target religious, educational, and social facilities belonging to Muslims and Jews.

Police also clarified that the convicted individuals collected over 200 knives and swords in addition to protective gear and a stun gun, while Ringrose printed parts of a semi-automatic firearm using 3D printing technology that could have been used in deadly attacks.

James Dunkerley, the head of counter-terrorism police in North East England, confirmed that security agencies intervened after noticing the group's increasing danger and their shift from mere discussions to identifying actual targets, noting that their arrest came at a timely moment to protect the public.

The court emphasized in its ruling that the defendants still cling to their extremist ideology despite denying the seriousness of their previous statements regarding praising Hitler or discussing potential targets.

The case highlights the rising threat of far-right terrorism in Britain, where neo-Nazi groups have become a parallel threat to other extremist organizations, relying on modern technology such as 3D printing in weapon manufacturing.
