Overview

• On Wednesday night, 'Neue Generation' activists parked three vehicles at the Springer printing press in Berlin-Spandau and glued themselves to the roofs to block 'Bild' and 'Welt' deliveries.
• Police and firefighters intervened after 11 pm, removing glued protesters—including one who required a grinder to detach from a vehicle—and ended the blockade.
• Authorities arrested six activists, who now face investigations for coercion, resisting officers and disrupting press operations.
• The protesters accuse Springer tabloids of fueling societal division and downplaying the climate crisis, echoing grievances first voiced by predecessor group Letzte Generation.
• The blockade capped a week that saw activists swap 'Bild' issues for fake editions in supermarkets and mount an earlier failed presshouse blockade as part of a broader June resistance campaign.
