Protests at Berlin's Humboldt University escalated as demonstrators occupied a lecture hall against the deportation of pro-Palestinian protesters. German police initiated about 100 investigations into various offenses related to the occupation, including aggravated trespassing and a serious breach of the peace. Protesters expressed dissent against Germany’s unwavering support for Israel amidst international criticism of its actions in Gaza. The immediate catalyst was the deportation threat faced by four international students linked to earlier protests, framing this event within a larger context of student activism and governmental tension in Germany regarding Middle Eastern policies.
The occupation of Humboldt University was aimed at protesting the deportation of students involved in pro-Palestinian demonstrations, reflecting broader discontent over Germany's Israel policies.
