Footage: Students with Palestinian flag and terrorist figure at concentration camp

A group of students on a tour of the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria wore shirts with the Palestinian flag and the image of Dalal Mughrabi, one of the perpetrators of the 1978 Coastal Road attack. The group's guide did not stop the tour, and some participants described it as a "protest against the genocide in Gaza." The article mentions a similar controversy at Buchenwald.

A group of students who arrived for a tour of the Mauthausen concentration camp in Austria wore shirts bearing the Palestinian flag and the image of Dalal Mughrabi, one of the perpetrators of the 1978 Coastal Road attack. Mughrabi was a member of the cell that carried out the attack, during which a bus was hijacked and dozens of Israelis, including children, were murdered. In footage circulated from the tour, several students are seen wearing the shirts inside the camp grounds, and the group's guide does not stop the tour. Other students present can be heard explaining that, in their words, this is a "protest against the genocide in Gaza." The article mentions a similar incident that occurred in recent months at the Buchenwald memorial site, where a controversy arose around pro-Palestinian protests and activities. In February, it was reported that far-left organizations in Germany called for protests against the site's management after it banned the wearing of keffiyehs in the camp area, a decision backed by a German court. The organizers accused the site's management of "criminalizing" pro-Palestinian activists and taking a pro-Israeli stance, while Germany's anti-Semitism commissioner condemned the move, calling it an affront to the dignity of Holocaust victims and the culture of remembrance.
