About this Episode
Around 20,000 people marched in Erfurt against the far-right Alternative for Germany party’s annual conference. Demonstrators blocked roads and tram lines while riot police monitored the protest. Thüringen police called the demonstration legitimate, but reported paint-bomb and firework attacks on an AfD office and officers. The conference went ahead, with Alice Weidel and Tino Chrupalla re-elected as co-chairs.
In Tirana, tens of thousands marched for a 35th consecutive day against a Trump-linked luxury resort planned in the protected Zvërnec area. Protesters toppled a bust of Prime Minister Edi Rama, and police used tear gas and water cannon during clashes.
In New York, at least eight people were shot in Coney Island late on the Fourth of July. Police said a masked gunman opened fire near a family barbecue and fled. No arrests had been made.
