Description

Thousands of people march through Berlin's Neukolln neighbourhood to remember the nine victims of the far-right terrorist attack in Hanau, Germany, last year.

On the first anniversary of attack, several organisations, groups and platforms called for a protest to remember the victims and to protest against far right attacks in Germany.

The protest was followed by dozens of police officers, who could be seen regulating the traffic and the monitoring the observance of the COVID-19-related rules on mask wearing, among other things.

On February 19 2020, a 43-year-old German citizen, named Tobias R., from Hanau opened fire outside a shisha bar in the city's Heumarkt district, driving off to a second location in the Kesselstadt district, where he opened fire again. The double shooting left nine people dead, with five injured, before the perpetrator and his 72-year-old mother were found dead at his address. The killer published a manifesto online before his death in which he expressed his hatred towards ethnic minorities, as well as other conspiratorial beliefs.
