A SECRET army of 200 elite soldiers planned to slaughter politicians and immigrants in Germany, it is revealed today.

Authorities have smashed the plot by serving and former neo-Nazi members of the country’s special forces to wreak havoc on “Day X”.

The sensational conspiracy is uncovered in a seven-page report by Berlin news weekly Focus.

The breakaway group of the Bundeswehr’s KSK — the equivalent to the SAS — aimed to kill Green Party leader Claudia Roth, foreign minister Heiko Mass and former president Joachim Gauck.

Death squads planned to lure them and other left-wingers to remote locations and assassinate them.

Leaders of asylum seeker groups blamed for terrorism, rapes and social unrest were also in their sights.

The group’s numbers had swelled as Chancellor Angela Merkel opened the door in 2015 to a million refugees.

The report says: “Numerous interrogations paint a picture of a conspiratorial force that is not supposed to shy away from the killing of political opponents.”

The warriors had planned Day X for when law and order collapsed - which they believed was “imminent”.

Focus reports police at first believed talk of the plot was a beer-fuelled fantasy.

But a former Air Force major broke under interrogation last year to reveal all.

The authorities were searching for stockpiles of weapons, ammunition, food and petrol hidden at training camps on the borders with Austria and Switzerland.

The coup plotters belonged to an organisation named Uniter, founded in 1996 for the welfare of special forces soldiers following tours in Afghanistan and Africa.

It has denied any knowledge of the group.
