Demonstrators gathered in Berlin calling for an end to German weapons sales to Israel and a ceasefire in Gaza, the Ma'an news agency reported. The protest underscored mounting domestic pressure on the German government over its military support for Israel during the conflict in Gaza.
The demonstration reflected broader debate within Germany about its defense industry's role in the Middle East. Public opposition to arms transfers has intensified as the Gaza war continues, with civil society groups and activists pressing policymakers to reassess their stance on military aid and weapons exports to the Israeli government.
