Sympathizers are waiting to see if police officers will allow MP Anne Stambach-Terrenoir to supply the 'Ecureuils' with food and medicine. Following the legally binding report by Michel Forst, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders, which demands the resupply of 'Ecureuils' who are standing in the trees of the 'Crem'Arbre' ZAD (Zone To Defend), activists from LVEL (La Voie Est Libre, or 'The Way Is Free') and MP Anne Stambach-Terrenoir are trying unsuccessfully to deliver supplies, even with a doctor's prescription and medicine for an 'Ecureuil'. The 'Ecureuils' and their trees have been besieged by police for more than a month. The police are also refusing to deliver the medicine to the 'Ecureuils' or to allow journalists to do their job. In Saix, Tarn, France, on the planned A69 highway between Toulouse and Castres, opponents have installed a ZAD dubbed 'Crem'Arbre', and 'Ecureuils' are living in the trees to block their cutting. Riot police are standing guard near the trees occupied by 'Ecureuils' to prevent the supply of food and water by sympathizers. The main collective 'La Voie est Libre' wants the highway project to be halted until all judicial decisions on the matter are made. All expropriations for farmers have not been cleared. Opponents of the project argue that the reprofiling of the N126 would be sufficient for the 6,000 vehicles planned per day and would cost far less money. The A69 highway is projected to cost EUR512 million (in 2018 euros, without inflation) for 53 kilometers, and its construction would destroy more than 100 protected species and 400 hectares of agricultural fields. The date is March 22, 2024.
