Activists replace the German flag with a Palestinian one at the Reichstag: three detained, group Peacefully Against Genocide claims responsibility
On November 8, 2026, a 22-year-old activist climbed the flagpole in front of the Reichstag in Berlin and replaced the German flag with a Palestinian one. All three participants were detained, and a case of insulting the state and its symbols has been opened. Responsibility was claimed by the pro-Palestinian group Peacefully Against Genocide, while Bundestag President Julia Klöckner demanded stronger protection for the parliament.
