🇳🇱 Around 200 protesters gathered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, on Friday morning, with activists from Geef Tegengas taking over the construction site of three 85-meter-tall data center towers are being built for Microsoft, in an effort to halt construction. The protesters raised concerns about AI, Big Tech’s growing power, and the environmental impact of data centers, arguing that they consume electricity, water, and land needed by local communities. They also condemned Microsoft's ties to the Israeli military amid the genocide in Gaza. “Amsterdam is saying no to genocide,” protesters chanted. Activists climbed scaffolding and a construction crane, hanging a banner reading “Down with datacentre, fuck AI.” Two protesters chained themselves to an excavator, while others waved Palestinian flags and painted “Free Palestine” on the site. Dutch riot police used batons and pepper spray against demonstrators attempting to enter the site. Officers later cleared the construction site, arresting dozens. Amnesty International observers were present to monitor potential police violence.

🎥 #WATCH | Madhya Pradesh: Police on Sunday removed protesters and dismantled the agitation site at Kupi village in Chhatarpur district, bringing a 15-day-long satyagraha against the Ken-Betwa Link Project and other irrigation schemes to an end. Authorities escorted protesters back to their villages after clearing the site. The movement, led largely by tribal women and local residents, raised concerns over displacement, submergence of villages, loss of forests and agricultural land, and the demand for fair rehabilitation and compensation. Protesters staged jal satyagraha (standing in water), chita satyagraha (symbolic funeral pyre protest), and later a symbolic faansi satyagraha as the agitation intensified. The protest comes amid a broader wave of citizen-led demonstrations over development and environmental issues across India. In recent days, activist Sonam Wangchuk's hunger strike at Delhi's Jantar Mantar drew national attention before he was shifted to hospital, residents in Uttarakhand protested the felling of thousands of trees along the Bhaniyawala–Rishikesh stretch, prompting the state government to temporarily halt the exercise, and protests have also continued over proposed infrastructure projects, including the Vizag data centre, with activists raising concerns over environmental impact and land use. #MadhyaPradesh #KenBetwaLinkProject #Chhatarpur #Environment #WATCH
