Pro-Palestinian action: Protest against Rheinmetall Police: Blockade is prevented

On July 9, 2026, around 100 pro-Palestinian demonstrators attempted to block access to the Rheinmetall factory site in Berlin's Wedding district. The police intervened and prevented the blockade, identifying 60 individuals involved. During the confrontation, two protesters were arrested, and two police officers sustained injuries. The group 'Peacefully Against Genocide' claimed they had blocked the entrance with 40 supporters, some of whom glued themselves to the road. They described the action as the beginning of protests against Germany's support for Israel and alleged complicity in the genocide in Palestine.
