On Good Friday, gatherings took place in Gronau, Gütersloh, Chemnitz, and Jagel, following earlier protests in Erfurt and Jena on Maundy Thursday. This year’s Easter marches are significantly influenced by ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, with participants advocating against the reintroduction of compulsory military service. Over one hundred events are scheduled throughout the weekend, with the main action days set for Holy Saturday and Easter Monday, as reported by the Friedenskooperative network.
