Action will be taking place in many British cities because a number of Congolese detainees have now received "removal directions" for Thursday 30th August, stipulating Flight number PVT616 and 'Operation Castor'. Castor was the 'Operational' name given to the 'Charter Flight' on the 26th February that removed 21 children and 17 adults to DR Congo.

quoting from a comment: [18.08.2007 19:24] Next deportation flight
Congolese refugees are receiving deportation orders for the 30th August. All indications are that XL will again be the company flying them back. Please telephone, fax or email the company. Please be non-aggressive and non-offensive otherwise it could be detrimental to trying to stop people getting sent back.
