German police arrested four pro-Palestinian protesters outside Berlin's foreign ministry on Thursday (October 2) for spreading paint on the building's facade, police said on social media platform X.

An activist who gave her name as Laila Fuisz and spoke with an Austrian accent said four people were involved and that they had painted the facade of the foreign ministry "with blood-red paint and written the names of people killed in Palestine on the ground outside.

Earlier, pro-Palestinian protesters demanded a free Gaza in chants across the street from the government building.

Hours earlier in Gaza, Israeli tanks blocked the main road to Gaza City, preventing those who have left the besieged city from returning, and Defence Minister Israel Katz said it was now the last chance for hundreds of thousands of people still inside to escape.

Israel has told the entire million-strong population of Gaza City to head south as it mounts one of the biggest offensives of the war this month, vowing to root out Hamas fighters in what it says are their last bastions in Gaza's biggest urban area.
