Lützerath: German coal mine stand off amid Ukraine war energy crunch
Activists and police are facing off in Lützerath, where diggers plan to expand a giant coal mine. …
As we speak, more supporters arrive, bearing backpacks, to join the activists, some of whom have lived on the site for more than a year. Police officers, some in riot gear, stand close by, wary, as some of the protesters link arms and form a line just a few metres away from the giant digger bearing down on the village.
