The last two climate activists holed up in a self-built tunnel to prevent the extension of a coal mine in western Germany left their hideout on Monday....
A building is demolished in the village of Luetzerath, western Germany, to make way for an open-air coal mine extension on January 16, 2023. – In an operation launched earlier this week, hundreds of police have been working to remove activists, who have already occupied the hamlet of Luetzerath in western Germany.
Around 300 activists had occupied Luetzerath, to the west of Cologne, to protest the extension of the adjacent open-cast Garzweiler coal mine that would engulf the settlement. Police launched an operation on Wednesday to clear the protest camp, making quicker progress than expected, and by Sunday had all but cleared the site.
Police said 15,000 people turned up, but organisers, who put attendance at 35,000, accused them of “violence” during the protest on Saturday, at which both police and demonstrators were injured.
