Color bag attack in Vechta: chaos while reservist appeal!
Vechta, Deutschland - A happening for some explosive events took place on June 15, 2025 in Vechta.

According to regionalheute.de, the attackers have now been identified and are faced with an administrative offense procedure. This apparently belonged to the terrifying overall picture on this day, because the police also had to take further measures to control the Situation.
So around 4:08 p.m. around 25 people had tried to break through a police ban. The police reaction was decided: to defuse the situation, pepper spray was used. As a result, a total of 15 people were temporarily arrested and proven with a meeting exclusion. Fortunately, there were no injuries that the situation defused.
parallel events under pressure
During the reservist appeal, there was also a rally with peaceful protests for peace. This was organized by the initiative "Never again war - the weapons" and peace coordination Berlin. On June 14th, the previous day, they had already protested against the alleged impairment of their freedom of assembly by the police. For this purpose, the participants were driven out of the Brandenburg Gate when they found space in a new area behind Ebertstrasse. The situation in Berlin was tense, as they were supported by more than 80 different groups. In addition, a large biker demonstration with 500 to 700 machines was also announced, which further increased the pressure on the police (Nie-wieder-krieg.org).
According to reports, the Berlin assembly authority has issued a flat-rate bans for pro-Palestinian demonstrations, which puts the guiding principle of the right on peaceful protest in a questionable light. This development is part of a questionable tendency in many countries, which is not only troubled by the right to peaceful protest in Germany. The report by liberties.eua social call
With these latest developments, it becomes more clear than ever how important the right is on peaceful protest for our democracy. It not only serves to comment on important topics, but also to raise the voice against systematic restrictions. In Germany, not only Pro-Palestinian, but also environmental activists were affected by attacks and repression, which leads the social debate about fundamental rights into a critical phase.
In view of all of these events, a clarifying sign is needed more than ever: political responsibility on the part of the authorities and the city is required to respect and protect the right to assemble. The protesters in Berlin can only hope that their voices will not remedy and that society, as well as political decision -makers, takes their concerns seriously and recognizes the validity of their demands in a democratic society.| Details | |
