Berlin 15.06.2024
This is witnessed every week. This is not reported in mainstream Berlin or German media.
On Saturday, another peaceful demonstration, ca. 25-30 people were arrested, including minors, a woman’s arm was broken & at least one protester was knocked unconscious.
Scenes show the German police's heavy-handed suppression yesterday of the peaceful pro-Palestine protest in Berlin.
