BERLIN TURNS WARZONE: Fireworks Ban Collapses, Police Injured

Police detained multiple people and stepped up enforcement in Berlin as New Year’s Eve celebrations descended into disorder despite a ban on private and homemade fireworks in several districts, including Alexanderplatz and parts of Neukölln. Officers were seen carrying out searches and making arrests amid widespread fireworks use, with at least one police officer injured during the operation. Elsewhere in Germany, two 18-year-old men were killed in separate incidents involving homemade fireworks in Bielefeld, highlighting growing safety concerns. Authorities had warned of potential violence against emergency services, while Berlin also scaled back official celebrations after funding for events at the Brandenburg Gate was withdrawn. #berlin, #berlinnews, #newyearchaos, #fireworksban, #germanynews, #riotpolice, #urbanunrest, #breakingnews, #worldnews, #newyear2026, #policeinjured, #fireworksviolence, #rawfootage #tnworld #timesnowworld #worldnews #internationalnews #timesnews #newsworld ​Subscribe now: http://bit.ly/3VHIl37 Times Now World is your definitive source for comprehensive global news and analysis.
