Tesla's Berlin Gigafactory Temporarily Closes Amid Environmental Protests

The shutdown, initially reported as a four-day halt, has been clarified to last only one day due to security concerns and protest actions.

Tesla's Berlin plant will cease operations for a single day, contradicting earlier reports of a longer shutdown.
Protests focus on the environmental impact of expanding the factory, including concerns over deforestation and water use.
Local authorities and police are preparing for potential disruptions, with no public transport to the site during the protest period.
Previous incidents at the plant include an arson attack by activists, highlighting ongoing tensions over environmental issues.
Tesla's decision to halt production temporarily comes amid broader challenges, including a recent dip in European market sales.
