Journalists and political activists held a vigil in Berlin to honour Al Jazeera staff killed by Israel in the Gaza Strip and to denounce Germany’s support of Israel’s military campaign in the enclave, according to Al Jazeera.
Participants displayed photographs of the slain journalists, placed white roses and lit candles beside the images. Organisers read the final testament of Al Jazeera journalist Anas al-Sharif and recited the names of all 270 journalists killed in Gaza since the offensive began on October 7, 2023.
Speakers at the vigil condemned what they called Germany’s “unconditional support” for Israel, accusing Berlin of ignoring war crimes and human rights violations.
