Over 200 arrested in Germany after violence at Eritrean diaspora event – Al Jazeera

9/17/2023 – In September 2023, over 200 Eritrean opposition supporters were arrested in Germany after violence broke out during a cultural festival organized by supporter of Eritrean President Isaias Afwerki in the city of Stuttgart. This conflict, and similar ones taking place in Germany and Israel, showcase the divide within the Eritrean diaspora between those who live in exile and those who remain  pro-Isaias.
