Pro-Palestinian Protesters Disrupt Robert Habeck's Campaign Event in Berlin

The Green Party candidate addressed the Gaza conflict while acknowledging the protesters' grievances during a disrupted election rally.

Pro-Palestinian activists interrupted a campaign event for Green Party chancellor candidate Robert Habeck in Berlin, chanting 'Free Palestine' and accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza.
Habeck paused his speech twice as security personnel removed several protesters from the venue after they were allowed to initially voice their concerns.
The activists criticized Germany's arms sales to Israel, claiming the country shares responsibility for the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
Habeck condemned the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel as the worst anti-Jewish crime since the Holocaust, while also criticizing Israel for civilian casualties in Gaza.
He expressed understanding for the protesters' anger over the suffering in Gaza but emphasized that all parties must adhere to international humanitarian law.
