Pro-Palestine demonstrators gathered at Berlin's Potsdamer Platz on April 20, 2024, as part of a nationwide protest calling for Germany to cease arms supplies to Israel. The rally, under the banner "Stop Arming Israel! No Weapons for Israel," marks a significant moment of solidarity for Gaza amid ongoing Middle Eastern tensions. The protests echo widespread condemnation of the German government's military support for Israel. Demonstrators also criticized the continuation of Israeli army operations and blockades that hinder humanitarian aid to Gaza. Against the backdrop of these protests, there has been a notable increase in antisemitic incidents in Germany since the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas War. The German Federal Office of Criminal Investigation has documented a surge in crimes linked to the conflict, including acts of vandalism and violent assaults, primarily targeting Jewish communities.(Photo by Michael Kuenne/PRESSCOV/Sipa USA)
