MEP Grzegorz Braun has been suspended for thirty days from the European Parliament after disrupting a moment of silence for Holocaust victims by calling for a prayer for the victims of the Jewish genocide in Gaza. The suspension began on March 10 and includes a forfeiture of his daily subsistence allowance. Braun has a history of controversial actions, including using a fire extinguisher to put out Hanukkah candles in the Polish parliament in 2023.
