And while Germany is immersed in a moment of social unrest, due to the veto of pro-Palestinian protests and the fear of the rise of anti-Semitism and terrorist attacks.
Faeser of the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) has been spotted with her family at the luxurious Steigenberger Hotel in Camp de Mar (Andratx), according to Bild newspaper.
When asked by Mallorca Magazine, the Mallorca Bulletin weekly sister paper, whether the minister is in Mallorca, a spokeswoman for the press service of the Federal Ministry of the Interior replied that she could not say.
“As far away from #Berlin as possible, but still on German soil: the #BundesNancy moves its headquarters to #Mallorca”, “What do you do as Minister of the Interior and Minister for Disaster Protection when hatred of Jews rages in the streets of the country and a storm surge devastates the East? Exactly! Holidays in a 5-star hotel in Majorca #Faeser,“ are some of the criticisms on social media.
The 53-year-old Faeser, said last Friday: “If we are able to deport Hamas supporters, we must do this,” following talks with officials at the Federal Criminal Police Office.
“Our security authorities have currently placed an even stronger focus on the Islamist scene,“ she added, pointing to a recent attack in Brussels as an indication of the threat.
Concerns over antisemitism are growing in Germany, particularly following an attempted attack on a Berlin synagogue with petrol bombs, and clashes between pro-Palestinian protesters and police in Berlin and other cities.
At the same time members of Germany's large Palestinian community have said their voices are being silenced by demonstration bans.
Faeser appealed to citizens to alert authorities of any “propaganda” supporting Hamas.
On Friday, prosecutors in Munich searched the house of a 38-year-old German national over an Instagram post defending Hamas's attack, according to a statement from the prosecutor.
“We will not allow this vile hatred and horrific violence to spread,“ Faeser told reporters.
She is the main candidate of the German Social Democratic Party, but lost the election in her home state of Hesse on 8 October. She received only 15.1 percent of the vote, 4.7 percent less than her party achieved four years ago.
In recent decades, Hesse was one of the SPD’s most important home states in Germany. Faeser has been repeatedly criticised for her stance on refugee policy. She was and still is accused of being too tolerant towards the mass illegal entry of migrants.
