Berlin Braces for Largest Pro-Palestine Demonstration Since Conflict Began
A large pro-Palestine demonstration is set to take place in Berlin this Saturday, November 5. The event, starting at 14:00 at Alexanderplatz's Neptune fountain, is expected to be the city's biggest such gathering since the conflict began in October. The organisers, though unnamed, have received backing from various left-wing groups and are rallying under the slogan 'Free Palestine will not be cancelled'.
The demonstration comes amidst Germany's official ban on the Islamist Palestinian organisation Hamas and the pro-Palestinian network Samidoun. Despite this, several left-wing groups have shown support, including Migrantifa Berlin, DIEM25, Jewish Voice for Peace, and Palestine Speaks. Berlin anticipates a larger turnout than the previous demonstration on October 22, which saw 11,000 participants.
The organisers, while not specified, have planned a significant event, with the city bracing for a larger crowd than before. The demonstration's slogan, 'Free Palestine will not be cancelled', reflects the growing momentum of the pro-Palestine movement in Berlin.
