Tension Rises during Nakba March in Berlin

A march was held yesterday in Berlin, the capital of Germany, to commemorate Nakba Day, May 15, 1948, when the Palestinians were deported from their lands after Israel declared its independence. A brief play was performed at Oranienplatz Square in the Kreuzberg District to remember the oppressed and killed Palestinians, and the crowd began marching with slogans. The reactions and slogans intensified when nearing the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the protest was intervened by the Berlin police, who also detained several people.
