The compensation payments, issued to hundreds of victims since 2007, were first reported on Sunday by the German news weekly Focus, according to the French news agency AFP. Focus reported that Germany paid compensation for victims including 10 people, most of them Turkish, killed by the National Socialist Underground between 2000 and 2007, as well as victims of the Mumbai terror attacks in 2008 and a 2011 attack on a Moscow airport.
