- A shop in Flensburg, Germany, sparked nationwide outrage after displaying an antisemitic sign banning Jews from the store.
- The sign, which read 'Jews not allowed' and 'Nothing personal, nothing antisemitic – I just can’t stand you', has been removed from the door but is reportedly still visible inside.
- Public prosecutors are investigating the incident for reasonable suspicion of disturbing public peace and inciting hatred towards Jews.
- Local and national leaders, including Flensburg mayor Fabian Geyer and federal commissioner Felix Klein, condemned the message, drawing parallels to the oppression faced by Jewish people in Nazi Germany.
- The shop owner, Hans Velten-Reisch, defended his actions by linking the sign to the war in Gaza, while Israeli ambassador Ron Prosor and Chancellor Friedrich Merz highlighted the dangerous rise of antisemitism in Germany.
