BERLIN, GERMANY - NOVEMBER 03: This screenshot shows the still active Facebook page of Samidoun Deutschland, the German chapter of the international Palestinian-rights activists group Samidoun, including the slogan: "Free Palestine From The River To The Sea", which negates Israel's right to exist, on November 03, 2023 in Berlin, Germany. The day before the German government announced it is banning Samidoun and all its activities due to the group's public celebration of the deadly October 7 incursions by Hamas fighters into Israel. The government is also banning any activities that might support Hamas, which enables law enforcement to clamp down on any related fundraising activities. (Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images)
