Protest 10 June 2025 - Update 2
15:15 hours
UM has still not succeeded in establishing direct contact with the occupiers of the university building at Zwingelput. UM has no insight into what is happening inside the building, nor whether the safety of both the approximately 20 occupiers and the building itself is adequately ensured. What is visible is that earlier today, the occupiers lit flares in open window frames. This has increased concerns about safety.
A message has been sent to the demonstrators inside the building via the available channels (e-mail), stating that UM wishes to enter into dialogue with them as soon as possible.
The police and the municipality are involved in this and in the next steps.
