Police Conclude Clearance of Tesla Protest Camp in Grünheide

Authorities removed activists protesting Tesla's European factory after a three-day operation.

Police have completed the removal of activists from the Tesla protest camp in Grünheide, near Berlin, after a three-day operation.
The protest camp, involving treehouses and activists in trees, was set up against Tesla's only European factory.
Authorities initiated the clearance due to safety concerns over suspected unexploded ordnance in the area.
Most activists left voluntarily after the order to disband, but some resisted, necessitating the use of police specialists.
The local government has imposed a ban on entering the forest area, citing risks associated with potential explosive remnants.
