A number of protesters clashed with police during a demonstration in support of Palestine in Berlin on Sunday, throwing stones and bottles at police.
Some demonstrators tried to break a police line and set off fireworks.
Police told the rally in the Kreuzberg district that “public safety is in danger,” in a loudspeaker announcement that said criminal offenses were being committed by people in the gathered crowd.
About 3,500 people took part in the protest march under the banner ‘Demo against Genocide in Gaza’, far more than the 1,000 who had initially registered.
