Memorial march in Düsseldorf: 1000 people are reminiscent of victims of terrorism

In Düsseldorf, a memorial march took place on Sunday on the anniversary of the Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, in which around 1,000 people took part. Organized by groups such as the Jewish Student Association of North Rhine -Westphalia and the Jewish community, the march reminded of the brutally murdered 1,200 people from October 7, 2023 and demanded the immediate release of the hostages in Gaza. The Jewish community emphasized that this march should be a sign of commemoration and solidarity.

At the same time, the Middle East conflict also mobilized people to other meetings. According to the NRW Ministry of the Interior, at least 21 meetings were planned on Monday, including in Dortmund, Bielefeld and Bonn. On Saturday, more than 1,000 people had already participated in a Propalestinian demo in Düsseldorf, which was peaceful, but led to several advertisements due to cardboard signs with controversial content and insults against meeting participants. These developments show how the conflict continues to move people and heats up discussions, www.ksta.de .
