19 September 2024

Zadists speak to and with Gendarmes during the partial destruction by Atosca of the 'Verger' ZAD. For the second day, Gendarmerie and CNAMO try to dislodge 'Ecureuils' (i.e., 'Squirrels') from the trees they occupy at the 'Verger' ZAD (Zone to Defend). The 'Verger' ZAD is situated on the planned and disputed A69 highway project. As Gendarmerie and CNAMO intervene, NGE/Atosca begins the destruction of the house and the cutting of all the trees. 'Zadistes' try to resist Gendarmerie in the 'Verger' house without success. 'Ecureuils' (i.e., 'squirrels') live in the trees of the 'Verger' ZAD (Zone to Defend). The driver of the excavator is admonished by Gendarmerie for his dangerous behavior with the excavator, putting human lives in danger. The main collective 'La Voie est Libre' (i.e., 'The Way is Free') wants the highway to be stopped until all the justice decisions on the content are given. All expropriations for farmers are not cleared. Opponents of this project say that the reprofiling of the N126 will be sufficient for the 6,000 vehicles planned per day and would cost far less money. The A69 highway will cost EUR512 million (in 2018 euros without inflation) for 53 kilometers. More than 100 protected species and 400 hectares of agricultural fields will be destroyed. Verfeil, France, on September 17, 2024.
