A large protest march was held in Berlin to denounce Israel’s attacks on tent camps in Rafah, Gaza Strip. Demonstrators gathered in Oranienplatz Square, chanting slogans like “Scholz, where are you? Israel is killing, you are watching,” and “Israel is a terrorist, the USA is a terrorist.” Protesters criticized German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and the government for continuing arms sales to Israel, claiming 47% of weapons sold to Israel come from Germany, with sales increasing tenfold since October 7. They accused Germany of complicity in the violence against Palestinians. The protest, attended by about 3,000 people, saw tensions with police, resulting in the throwing of bottles and eggs and several arrests.
