No place for anti-Semitism in Germany, minister says after Israeli flags burned
German Justice Minister Heiko Maas said there was no place for anti-Semitism in Germany after demonstrators angered by US President Donald Trump's decision to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel burned Israeli flags in Berlin.
Hundreds of people gathered outside the US embassy in the German capital for "Day of Rage" protests on Friday. Police later said on Twitter that they had detained 10 people during the protest and 12 criminal charges had been brought—including for burning Israeli flags.
