Germany Shuts Down Pro-Palestinian Conference Amid Controversy

German authorities halted a Palestinian solidarity event in Berlin, citing concerns over antisemitic remarks by a key speaker.

German police shut down a pro-Palestinian conference in Berlin, fearing antisemitic remarks from speaker Salman Abu Sitta.
The conference aimed to criticize what organizers call Israel's 'genocide' in Gaza and accused Germany of complicity.
Several attendees, including a British Palestinian doctor barred from entering Germany, were detained by police.
Critics argue that Germany's actions suppress legitimate pro-Palestinian voices under the guise of preventing antisemitism.
The incident has sparked a broader debate on freedom of speech and the right to protest in Germany.
