A far-right extremist allegedly plotted an attack on two Dutch princesses, carving their names into axes alongside Nazi slogans, before authorities stopped him. A 33-year-old man is set to appear in court next week after allegedly targeting Princess Catharina-Amalia, 22—the future queen of the Netherlands—and her younger sister Princess Alexia, 20, in a plot uncovered by authorities in February. Police arrested the suspect in The Hague, the governmental seat of the Netherlands and home to the Dutch royal family, where officers say he was carrying two axes engraved with “Alexia” and “Mossad,” the Israeli intelligence agency, along with “Sieg Heil,” the Nazi chant meaning “Hail Victory.” Investigators also recovered a handwritten note that listed both sisters alongside the word “bloodbath.” Authorities have not disclosed a motive and have withheld the suspect’s identity under Dutch privacy laws. The alleged plot adds to ongoing security concerns around Catharina-Amalia. In 2022, authorities uncovered a suspected kidnapping plot targeting her and then-prime minister Mark Rutte.
