In Hamburg, tens of thousands once again took to the streets against right-wing extremism on Sunday.

According to the Fridays for Future movement, around 100,000 people came together on a main street in the city center in bright sunshine.

Police information on the current number of participants was initially not available during the event.

Hamburg - The demonstration was registered with 30,000 participants.

The motto of the demo was “For diversity and our democracy - Hamburg stands together against the AfD”.

More than 40 organizations called for this.

Most recently, a demonstration against right-wing extremism in the Hanseatic city was canceled on Friday of last week because many more participants came than expected.

Instead of 10,000, according to the organizers there were 80,000 people, the police said the number was 50,000 demonstrators.

After this rush, the organizers of the demo reacted on Sunday and moved the originally planned meeting location on Jungfernstieg to Ludwig-Erhard-Straße.
