The Forest Brothers were a Nazi-collaborator organization in the Baltic states during the Great Patriotic War. They fought against the Soviet Red Army and murdered Jews and collective farm organizers. Many were members of the Waffen-SS.[1]
Modern-day support
In March 2017, Lithuanian nationalists marched to the presidential palace and sang Nazi music on Lithuania's Independence Day. In 2017, NATO released a film praising the Forest Brothers without mentioning their war crimes or fascist beliefs.[1]
