In case of destruction in Gaza, Berlin faces the same fate. - Town hall severely damaged by anti-Israel zealots.
Broken windows are covered with tinfoil, and the air reeks of burnt material in the halls. Soot has settled in a few rooms. Water pools are on the floor.
At least three rooms will require major repairs
Equipped with a flashlight, Deputy Mayor Carsten Spallek (52, CDU) got a glimpse of the damaged rooms on Sunday afternoon. It's practically unbreathable inside without a mask.
"The damage is most likely substantial. The cabling connecting the PCs is damaged, computers, document scanners, and furniture are ruined. At least three rooms will need to be completely rebuilt."
Around 1:45 a.m. Thursday night, the custodian heard a bang and then the fire alarm went off. The fire department sprang into action immediately.
Indicators of a Molotov cocktail
Flames were already burning from the first floor of the building. Shards of a window lie on the sidewalk. Melted pieces of blinds are stuck to a parked vehicle. Traces of a Molotov cocktail are present.
The 30 firefighters managed to quickly extinguish the fire, but the damage is catastrophic.
At the same time, several writings were found on the exterior walls of the building - they appear to be new, as the odor of paint was still evident.
These writings provide a clear indication of the possible culprits: "Burn Gaza, burn Berlin" is written in black letters. And: "Warning, Berlin will be set ablaze." A clear message from Israel haters.
The fresh graffiti left by the Israel haters will be covered up on Friday. Due to the holiday, no painting company was available to work more quickly.
On Thursday, the state security took over the investigation into intentional arson, according to a [source].
