Overview
- Frankfurt police confirmed that a woman doused three people with red paint near the System Change Camp in Grüneburgpark and said deployments would be increased as investigations proceed.
- Sacha Stawski of the group Honestly Concerned was among those targeted and filed a criminal complaint after the Friday incident reported around 5 p.m.
- Days before the attack, posters honoring hostages held by Hamas were repeatedly torn down in the park, contributing to escalating confrontations around the camp.
- The Jewish Community of Frankfurt condemned the gathering for providing a venue for anti-Israel agitation, while camp representatives said they reject oversteps, uphold red lines against legitimizing Hamas’s October 7 attack, and reported harassment of their participants.
- The Berlin-Brandenburg higher administrative court ruled a pro-Palestine encampment near the Chancellery qualifies as an assembly, and NRW’s top court cleared a separate protest camp in Cologne, reinforcing legal protections that complicate removals.
