Activists Block Bremen Port Site and Delmenhorst Meat Plant as Police Intervene

Organizers denounce imported animal feed they link to deforestation.

Overview

  • About 100 Disrupt activists blocked access to a grain-handling firm in Bremen-Walle while roughly 70 people halted entry to a meat processor in Delmenhorst.
  • Police in Bremen ordered participants to remove face coverings, recorded identities, and began clearing the entrance, with some protesters carried away.
  • At the Delmenhorst site, some demonstrators fixed themselves with adhesive and concrete and attached to gates and trucks, though police reported a calm situation with no immediate measures.
  • Roughly 1,000 supporters have set up a multi-day camp in Bremen’s Wallanlagen with workshops, and a major city demonstration is announced for Saturday at the Hauptbahnhof.
  • BUND joined parts of the protest with a planned harbor tour in Brake, criticized further Unterweser deepening, and urged local feed alternatives as authorities anticipate further unannounced actions.
