German police forces arrested several demonstrators during a march held on Saturday in the capital, Berlin, in solidarity with the Palestinian people against the genocide committed by Israel against them, especially in the Gaza Strip.

More than a thousand people gathered near the Platz der Luftbrücke metro station to denounce the attacks that Israel has been carrying out on Gaza for more than a year, and to show solidarity with the Palestinian people.

The demonstrators later marched around the station, waving Palestinian flags and banners demanding that the German government stop supplying Israel with weapons used to kill the Palestinian people.

The correspondent pointed out that clashes occurred during the march between demonstrators and police forces, which led to many participants supporting Palestine being subjected to violence and arrest.

The demonstrators were forced to end the demonstration near the Gneisenau metro station after police intervened to disperse them. After they refused to leave the place, the police arrested another large group of demonstrators. Germany expresses its support for Israel explicitly through its officials, and has agreed to sell weapons and military equipment to Israel worth 31 million euros in the past few weeks.

On October 16, the Ministry of Economy and Climate Protection stated that the government had approved the sale of weapons and military equipment to Israel worth 45.74 million euros during the current year.

With full American support, the Israeli genocidal war in Gaza, which has been ongoing for more than a year, has left more than 145,000 Palestinians dead and wounded, and more than 10,000 missing, amidst massive destruction and famine that has killed dozens of children and elderly people.

Tel Aviv continues its massacres, ignoring the UN Security Council resolution to end them immediately, and the International Court of Justice’s orders to take measures to prevent acts of genocide and improve the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza.
