A MYSTERIOUS extremist group has declared war on Elon Musk by launching an arson attack near the Tesla factory in Berlin.
The anarchists, dubbed The Vulkan Group, vowed that “no Tesla is safe” after they claimed responsibility for the strike against the EV plant located in the state of Brandenburg.
The gigafactory, Europe’s only Tesla manufacturing plant, has been forced to halt production for the rest of the week due to a power outage after an electricity pylon was set ablaze near the site.
German cops said the fire extinguished by the fire brigade adding that the incident was being investigated as a suspected arson attack.
According to Bild, the cost of the damage amounts to hundreds of millions of pounds.
In a 2,700-word statement published online, the far-left group known as Vulkangruppe said: “We sabotaged Tesla today.”
They described the hit as a gift marking International Women’s Day on March 8.
The statement published by local media stated: “Tesla in Grünau eats up earth, resources, people, labor and spits out 6,000 SUVs, killing machines and monster trucks per week.
“Our gift for March 8th is to shut down Tesla.”
The group went on accusing the firm of contaminating the drinking water and blaming the Tesla chief, 52, for “militarising the road” with cars as a “weapon” as it called for the destruction of the gigafactory.
