Berlin police stormed a Nakba Day remembrance march in the German capital, charging into crowds and attacking demonstrators with pepper spray during the peaceful event.
Footage from the scene showed officers aggressively pushing through marchers as people shouted against police violence.
The crackdown adds to Germany’s escalating repression of pro-Palestinian dissent as Berlin continues backing Israel despite mounting international condemnation over Israel’s genocide in Gaza and increasing attacks on Palestinian civilians.
