German authorities on Thursday banned Palestine Solidarity Duisburg, which had expressed solidarity with “Palestinian resistance in all forms,” according to the Associated Press.
Police raided four properties in the city of Duisburg linked to the group.
The Interior Ministry in the state of North Rhine-Westphalia also accused the group of spreading antisemitic narratives.
The move “sends the right signal,” said the region’s Interior Minister Herbert Reul, adding that “in many cases nothing other than hatred for Jews is hidden behind solidarity with Palestine, as in the case of the organization banned today.”
