Germany's decision to grant asylum to 8 donkeys brought from Gaza since 2023, while only accepting two children from Gaza for treatment in the last two years, has sparked a new debate in the public.
Germany's different applications towards individuals and animals coming from Gaza have sparked a new debate in the country. The Berlin administration denied entry to a Palestinian baby on security grounds, while the fact that 8 donkeys brought from Gaza have been granted asylum since 2023 has drawn public attention.
ALLOWANCE FOR DONKEYS, NOT FOR BABIES
German authorities stated that the entry of a Palestinian baby was denied on the grounds that it could create a "security risk." This decision has led to criticism in various circles, while Germany's allowance of donkeys brought from Gaza under animal protection legislation during the same period has raised questions about the differences in these applications.
