Ban on unannounced gatherings extended again
In Hamburg, unregistered gatherings in support of Hamas or its attacks on Israel that have not been confirmed by the assembly authorities remain banned. A general order in force since mid-October was extended for the ninth time on Wednesday, initially until next Sunday, according to the police. Regularly registered gatherings in the open air will continue to be intensively examined and confirmed by the assembly authorities, unless there are reasons for a ban, it said.
Despite the ongoing ban, demonstrations against Israel's actions in Palestine still sparked conflicts in certain areas of Hamburg. Police were required to intervene multiple times to maintain peace and order.
