Pro-Palestinian Protesters Hold Discussion at Berlin's Free University

The university provided a room for peaceful dialogue after demonstrations criticized its ties with an Israeli institution.

Approximately 30 pro-Palestinian demonstrators gathered peacefully outside the Otto-Suhr-Institut at the Free University of Berlin, calling for a general assembly.
The university granted the group access to a 60-person room for discussions under the condition that the event remained non-violent.
Protesters voiced opposition to the university's exchange program with the Hebrew University in Jerusalem and broader ties to Israeli institutions.
Classes were partially relocated or moved online, and nearby buildings, including the library, were temporarily closed as a precaution.
The protest follows a series of past demonstrations at the university, including violent incidents in October involving masked individuals and property damage.
