Tensions flared in Germany as pro-Palestinian protesters targeted the office of CDU leader Friedrich Merz, splattering it with red paint in a symbolic act of outrage. The protest followed Merzâs controversial remarks praising Israel for doing the âDirty workâ in Gaza, which drew widespread criticism from activists and rights groups.

At a high-stakes summit in Rome, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz reaffirmed unwavering European support for Ukraine amid Russiaâs escalating airstrikes. Merz issued a direct warning to PutinââWe will not give upââand urged Donald Trump to maintain transatlantic unity. While Trump approved new weapons, his long-term stance remains unclear. As Kyiv seeks more Patriot systems, Germany considers direct delivery. With 30 nations gathered, the summit focused on rebuilding Ukraine and coordinating air defenses as the war enters a deadlier phase.
