Berlin: Police ban Pro-Palestinian protest on anniversary of Hamas attack on Israel

A poster shared on social media praised the October 7, 2023 terrorist attack

Newsroom October 7 06:33

On the occasion of the second anniversary of the deadly Hamas attack in southern Israel, an invitation for a pro-Palestinian demonstration began circulating online on Sunday evening (October 5), scheduled to take place on Tuesday (October 7) at Berlin’s central square, Alexanderplatz. On Monday (October 6), the event was officially reported to the police.

Specifically, the police of the German capital issued an official statement on X (formerly Twitter), condemning and banning the demonstration planned for this afternoon.

“Based on recent experiences, a peaceful development of the gathering cannot be expected,” police clarified, adding that “our forces are on alert to enforce the ban.”

The poster promoting the demonstration, which was published on social media, read: “Generation by generation. Until complete liberation,” and depicted several individuals wearing Palestinian keffiyehs. A parachutist is also shown — likely a direct reference to the tragic attack at the Supernova music festival.

The attack — during which 1,195 people were killed and 251 abducted — is described in the protest invitation as a “brave uprising” and a “heroic prison break.” According to the invitation, the people of Gaza at that time broke through the walls of the “world’s largest open-air prison.”

“The demonstration that was announced for Alexanderplatz has been banned by the authorities, as an online invitation to the square had already led to the initiation of a criminal investigation, and a connection between the two events cannot be ruled out.

Based on the experiences of recent days, a peaceful development of the gathering cannot be expected.
Alternative applications for gatherings related to pro-Palestinian protests are, in this context, considered substitute events for today’s date and are prohibited in principle.

Our forces are on alert to enforce the ban.”
