In mid-October 2026, various demonstrations occurred across several German cities. In Magdeburg, approximately 700 people gathered to demand that the Federal Constitutional Court review political parties identified by the Office for the Protection of the Constitution as having right-wing extremist affiliations. Concurrently, a silent march titled ‘WALK FOR FREEDOM’ was held in Leipzig to protest human trafficking and sexual exploitation.

By late October, protests continued with an upcoming demonstration in Jena organized by ‘Jena solidarisch’ to oppose a planned citizen dialogue hosted by the AfD parliamentary group in Thuringia. Additionally, in Fulda, approximately 220 people demonstrated against the conversion of a long-standing green space into parking spaces and an access road, citing concerns over climate resilience and air quality.
