Greta Thunberg among activists arrested for blocking Israel’s ammo manufacturer

German police have violently arrested Greta Thunberg and more than 30 other activists for blocking the road to a German arms factory.

The Rheinmetall works produces ammunition for Israel’s military. Thunberg was also arrested in the UK for protesting against the Starmer regime’s proscription of anti-genocide group, Palestine Action.

The German state and police have been among the most brutal collaborators in Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Peaceful anti-genocide activists have been beaten, imprisoned and in some cases subjected to ‘civil death’, depriving them of employment, banking and official existence.

The Peacefully Against Genocide group is holding a series of demonstrations in Berlin in early July against “Germany’s complicity” in Israel’s genocide. The group will call for Rheinmetall to stop all deliveries to Israel and close the Berlin factory.

Greta Thunberg unbowed

In October 2025, Thunberg was among a group of humanitarian flotilla volunteers beaten and abused by Israeli guards. Clearly she is unbowed and unafraid of the genocide-enabling state thugs.
