Another pro-Palestinian demonstration took place in Vienna on Sunday afternoon. According to police reports, about 200 people gathered at Ballhausplatz, where the Federal Chancellery and the Presidential Chancellery are located. No incidents have been reported.

Also on the Judenplatz
A video was also shared on social media in the evening, showing people with Palestinian flags in an exuberant mood at Judenplatz in central Vienna. These include the memorial to the Austrian-Jewish victims of the Shoah (Holocaust monument) and the Jewish Museum Judenplatz, where the foundations of the medieval synagogue, which was destroyed in the 15th century, can be viewed. As a result of the “Vienna Gesera” of 1420/21, Jewish life in Austria was largely wiped out by forced baptisms, expulsions and murders.

Only on Saturday did supporters of the Palestinians demonstrate in Vienna-Favorites. This rally also passed without incident. However, following a demonstration in Graz that was broken up by the police, an incident occurred: On Saturday evening, a young man was arrested after attacking a police officer and slightly injuring him.
