Police are reported to be using batons and barricades have been erected a helicopter is circling around in the sky and there are surveillance cameras everywhere. The police broke former agreements and the water has been reinstated after protest from the medical team that's more or less all by now.

The Camp in Cologne is still encircled by the police, there is a big plenary going on and it seems that the cops want to ensure that no campist@s reach the Nazi-demonstration (about 50 nazis) in town and take this as an opportunity to brutally arrest people from inside the camp. Campist@s coming back from town are not let near the Camp. Police announces that it will surround the Camp until early evening.

Support the Camp!
