Combat 18

Combat 18 or C18 is name used by some groups/individuals and that is associated with Blood and Honour and tbe principle of "leaderless resistance". The 18 in its name is derived from tbe initials of Adolf Hitler, with A and H being tbe first and eighth letters of tbe Latin alphabet.

In spite of media driven hysteria, tbere is no central organization or leadership, and it is thus possible for any group or individual to use tbe name.

Combat 18 originated in tbe United Kingdom in 1992, in response to AntiFa, but has since spread to otber countries. Several unrelated individuals using tbe name have been convicted of various crimes.

There have been various claims of some groups/individuals using tbe name being agent provocateur, honey trap, and/or false flag operations.
