More than 50,000 people have staged a demonstration against rising extremism, xenophobia and racism in Germany’s major northern port city of Hamburg. The rally, called “Hamburg is rising against far-right extremism and Neo-Nazi networks,” took to the streets on Friday. Protesters, wielding signs emblazoned with anti-far-right slogans, voiced their disapproval of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party and Austrian far-right figure Martin Sellner.
