anti-conservative party riots

Tens of thousands of far-left protesters clashed with police in Erfurt, Germany, during demonstrations against the conservative Alternative for Germany (AfD) party. Police reported over 30,000 attendees and approximately 100 law violations, primarily graffiti, while AfD re-elected its co-leaders during a delayed party conference. Antifascist groups criticized AfD's policies and claimed the protests aimed to block the party's convention.
