German police brutalize female activists at Women’s Day rally (VIDEOS)

The women were reportedly part of a group of pro-Palestine protesters who joined the march in Berlin

Police in Berlin violently clashed with female activists at a pro-Palestine demonstration that took place during an International Women’s Day march on Saturday, according to videos posted online.

Footage circulating on X shows officers in riot gear using batons, as well as their fists, as they attempted to disperse the crowd. In one video, a group of officers is seen dragging a female protester before pinning her to the ground and choking her.

The footage has gone viral, sparking outrage. Some users condemned the officers’ actions, likening them to WW2-era Nazi practices, while others sarcastically praised the German authorities for demonstrating how women’s rights are enforced in the West.

German media has largely remained silent on the incident. However, Bild reported on Sunday that a pro-Palestine rally had been planned as part of the Women’s Day march in Berlin’s Kreuzberg district. According to the report, the organizers advised participants not to bring national flags, including those of Israel and Germany, but permitted Palestinian flags to symbolize a “revolutionary stance.”
