Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Extinction Rebellion also protested in Amsterdam to draw attention to climate policy. Yesterday, the protest group announced on Facebook a “massive disruptive action on the Zuidas”.
On Friday it was also a blockade on the Zuidas in Amsterdam. The police put an end to this after a few hours, because blockades were prohibited by the municipality.
On Sunday, six people from Extinction Rebellion were arrested at a demonstration on Damrak. The action on the Damrak was directed against the exploitation of the Uyghurs in China and was not announced in advance by the police. At the time, about 40 activists were present. The action was a split-off from a larger Extinction Rebellion protest on Museumplein.
The protest group tweeted about this morning’s action:
