BERLIN, July 16 (Reuters) - Germany 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.

The vote means Germany will hold new federal elections in early 2025, most likely on Feb. 23. That’s about seven months earlier than originally planned. Why did Mr. Scholz’s government fall?
