Dutch police arrest 130 climate protesters in Amsterdam
Dutch police on Saturday arrested 130 climate change protesters who blocked a main bridge in central Amsterdam as Extinction Rebellion activists disrupted traffic in front of the French parliament in Paris.
The Hague :Dutch police on Saturday arrested 130 climate change protesters who blocked a main bridge in central Amsterdam as Extinction Rebellion activists disrupted traffic in front of the French parliament in Paris.
The group, created in Britain last year, has carried out a wave of demonstrations around the world since Monday, primarily attempting to blockade city centre streets.
"The police has for the moment carried out 130 arrests at the Blauwbrug bridge" in the heart of the Dutch capital, the police said on Twitter.
Dozens of activists gathered at the bridge at around 9:00 am (0700 GMT), local media said.
The historic bridge connects several districts in central Amsterdam and dates back to the 17th century.
Some of the protesters slumped on hammocks hung from pillars supporting the bridge to prevent boats from passing underneath.
