Tens of thousands of demonstrators marched through Berlin on Saturday, protesting Israel's ongoing military operations in Gaza and urging the German government to end all military cooperation with Israel. The rally was organized by groups including the Palestinians in Germany and the country's Left Party (Die Linke). Organizers accused Israel of launching a genocide in Gaza, calling on Berlin to ensure the delivery of humanitarian aid and to press for a lasting ceasefire in the enclave. This Monday, a group of European countries, including France, Luxembourg, Belgium, Malta and Monaco, recognized the State of Palestine at the 80th session of the United Nations (UN) General Assembly held in New York. However, Germany has not yet recognized Palestine, despite its reiterated support for a two-state solution. Germany, along with Hungary and Italy, has also hindered the European Commission's proposed sanctions on certain Israeli ministers, settlers and related entities, which require a qualified majority to take effect.
