Arrests at Demonstration in Front of Israeli Embassy in Vienna

On June 10, around 1:00 PM, the police dissolved an unregistered assembly in front of the Israeli embassy in Vienna-Währing. Both the embassy operations and the traffic in front of the building were disrupted by approximately 15 pro-Palestinian activists.

Demonstration in Front of Embassy Prohibited - Sit-in by Participants

After the assembly was prohibited according to the provisions of the Assembly Act, the dissolution was announced multiple times via loudspeaker. Some participants, who had previously advocated for their cause with drums, banners, and chants, left the area.

However, some demonstrators refused to leave the location and instead engaged in a sit-in. The police urged the remaining individuals to end the assembly. As they did not comply with the request, eight people were temporarily arrested and transferred to a police detention center. Charges were filed against them under the Assembly Act.
