About 500 People Take Part in Anti-Israel Protests in Berlin

BERLIN (Sputnik) – About 500 people took to the streets of the German capital of Berlin on Friday to protest Israeli actions in the Gaza Strip, a Sputnik correspondent reported on Friday, adding that some of the demonstrators were detained.

The rally is still underway, although it was supposed to end at 7.00 p.m. (17:00 GMT). The protesters remain on the streets with about 200 police officers patrolling the area to make sure that COVID-19 sanitary measures are not being violated.

The recent civil unrest in Jerusalem triggered a wave of hostilities at the border between Israel and the Gaza Strip, with Palestinian militants conducting a constant barrage targeting Israeli settlements. In response, Israel launched strikes against the Palestinian enclave, killing several militants, including some high-ranking field commanders. According to the Palestinian health authorities, the Israeli attacks killed 126 people.
