The Irish ambassador to Germany has been in contact with German authorities to express “concern” over an incident that saw an Irish protestor assaulted by police officers during a pro-Palestine demonstration in Berlin.
Footage shared on social media showed Irish activist Kitty O’Brien being punched in the face by police before being dragged away from the protest.
