In the capital of Germany, Berlin, hundreds of people gathered in front of the Egyptian Embassy to protest for the opening of all routes to the Gaza Strip, especially the Rafah Border Crossing, and to ensure that aid reaches Palestinian civilians.
In Germany, hundreds of people came together to support Palestine, which is under Israeli embargo. Under heavy police security measures in front of the Egyptian Embassy in the capital Berlin, the protesters made noise by banging pots and pans to draw attention to the hunger experienced in the Gaza Strip. The demonstrators reacted to the "hunger in Gaza, the Israeli blockade, and attacks on civilians."
"OPEN THE RAFAH BORDER CROSSING"
During the demonstration, placards were carried with slogans such as "Open the Rafah Border Crossing," "Open the Rafah Border Crossing, Save Lives," "Freedom for Palestine," "Stop the Genocide," "Freedom for Gaza," and "Silence is Complicity." The protesters condemned the German government's military support for Israel, calling for an immediate halt to arms exports and for urgent humanitarian aid to reach Gaza. A female speaker raised "lavash bread" in the air, while the crowd chanted "There is No Bread in Gaza" in unison for a long time.
CALL FOR GAZA TO EGYPT
During the demonstration, slogans were frequently chanted against Israel and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It was stated in the speeches that dozens of people die every day due to the lack of aid reaching the Gaza Strip. The speeches emphasized the need for humanitarian aid, especially food, to be delivered to the region as soon as possible, and called on the Egyptian government to "open the Rafah Border Crossing," which borders the Gaza Strip.
The protesters reacted to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi. One speaker recalled the saying of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), "He is not one of us who goes to bed full while his neighbor is hungry," and stated, "If former President Mohamed Morsi were alive, those in Gaza would not die of hunger." One protester also placed their shoes on a banner featuring Sisi's image.
COLLECTING FLOUR FROM THE GROUND
A group of protesters drew attention to civilians trying to collect spilled flour on the ground to survive in Gaza, and they collected flour from the ground as well. The demonstration ended without incident.
