Shell are attempting to build the fences around their planned tunneling compound and with construction on-going only a few hours, Gardai have already violently attacked protestors with two people currently receiving medical attention, one with suspected broken ribs. Subsequent protests were broken up, by Gardai and private security, with Jim Farrell, former army ranger and managing director of private security firm IRM- S being personally involved.

We are calling for days of action this Friday the 1st and Saturday the 2nd of April. This means we urgently need people to come over here and take direct action against Shell. Please bring whatever you feel you will need and speak to others who you feel will be interested in helping stop this.
