AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): A planned pro-Palestine march on New Year’s eve in the German capital was banned by police.
The “No celebration during genocide” demonstration, which was scheduled to take place in the Neukolln district from 10.30 p.m. local time (2130GMT) on Sunday till 1 a.m, is prohibited, Berlin police said in a statement.
It claimed an “imminent danger” that there could be anti-Semitic slogans and glorification of violence during the protest, “based on the experiences of the past few years.”
In recent weeks, tens of thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators have marched in Western capitals, calling for an end to the Israeli regime’s brutal bombardment of the Gaza Strip.
The marches have reflected growing disquiet about the mounting civilian casualty toll and suffering from the conflict that began after the Hamas resistance movement launched the Al-Aqsa Flood Operation on October 7.
The Palestinian death toll in Israeli air and ground attacks on the besieged enclave is close to 22,000, with most of those killed in the attacks being women and children.
