Overview
- Early Wednesday, a second radioactive waste container arrived at the Ahaus interim storage after an overnight convoy from Jülich secured by a large police operation.
- The departure ran about an hour late, which JEN Jülich linked to a power-supply issue affecting the heavy transporter while it was stationary.
- A Münster administrative court let protesters use illuminated crosses and permitted demonstrations on bridges with limits after police sought broader restrictions.
- Activists held vigils in Jülich, Bottrop, and Ahaus, where police counted roughly 20 in Jülich, about a dozen in Bottrop, and around 180 at the Ahaus rally.
- Authorities plan to move 152 casks holding tennis-ball-sized fuel pebbles from a high-temperature test reactor operated from 1967 to 1988, and this run again carried only one cask.
