German police halt pro-Palestine gathering
German police forces halted a gathering of pro-Palestinian activists under the pretext of concerns over hate speech.
Tehran, Qodsna - Germany’s police officers shut down the power and terminated a conference after a pro-Palestine speaker participated via video link, according to the organizers.
The Palestine Congress, a three-day event organized by pro-Palestinian groups such as Yanis Varoufakis's DIEM25 party, sought to raise awareness about the Zionist regime’s genocide in Gaza.
The police prohibited the last two days of the conference, citing worries about the potential for hate speech.
One of the speakers at the event was Salman Abu Sitta, the author of an essay from January that expressed empathy for the Hamas October 7 attack on occupied territories.
