Police detained 193 people during a pro-Palestinian demonstration in Berlin, where officers intervened forcefully overnight. Authorities said those detained are under investigation for 65 offenses, including assault and use of banned symbols. Around 1,500 police were deployed at 21 protests involving both pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian groups, with reinforcements from five states. While pro-Israel rallies were permitted, Berlin police banned a planned pro-Palestinian demonstration at Alexanderplatz, prompting about 500 people to gather despite the ban.
