Protest deliberation scheduled for Gaza by the Left faction

Demonstration titled 'All Eyes on Gaza - Stop the Genocide', organized by the Palestinian community and various organizations, isn't the planned protest in Berlin on September 27, as led by the left party. Instead, a separate Gaza protest event has been scheduled for that date.

Protest deliberation scheduled for Gaza by the Left faction

The city of Berlin is set to host a large-scale protest on September 27th, showcasing solidarity with the people of Gaza. The event is being supported by Germany's The Left party, in response to the ongoing conflict and humanitarian crisis in the region [5].

While details about the specific alliance or other parties involved in organising the September 27th event are not yet fully disclosed, past pro-Palestinian demonstrations in Germany have seen a broad coalition of Palestinian communities, solidarity organizations, activists, and leftist groups come together [1].

Ines Schwerdtner, chairwoman of The Left, is spearheading a separate demonstration, aiming for a broad participation. However, it's important to note that her event is not scheduled for September 27th and is not part of the alliance discussed earlier [2].

Schwerdtner's demonstration, unlike the event led by The Left, will be led by both Palestinian and Jewish voices. This is a departure from the protest planned by Sahra Wagenknecht, which Schwerdtner declined to participate in [3].

It's worth mentioning that Schwerdtner's protest event is not named "All Eyes on Gaza - Stop the Genocide" [4]. The details about Schwerdtner's event, including her clear demands and ideas, are not being announced by the alliance at a later time, as previously mentioned [6].

The Left party's demonstration on September 27th, distinct from Schwerdtner's event, is not intended to be led by The Left party itself [7]. The details about the alliance's actions will be announced by the alliance at a later time [8].

Janis Ehling, federal manager of The Left, confirmed these details to the "Rheinische Post" in their Wednesday edition [9].

In summary, while the specifics of the alliance and the exact nature of The Left's involvement are yet to be fully disclosed, the September 27th Gaza protest in Berlin is shaping up to be a significant show of solidarity, likely involving a wide range of Palestinian solidarity and left-wing organizations [5][1].
