Revolution at the Slaughterhouses: Hundreds of Animal Rights Activists Block Six Slaughterhouses in France and the Netherlands!
In a night that shook the meat industry, over a hundred brave activists from the group “Animal Liberation” broke into and blocked six slaughterhouses – four in the Netherlands and two in France. This operation, lasting from midnight to 3 AM, marks the first such massive and coordinated attack on the veal industry in Europe.
What Happened?
The activists illegally entered slaughterhouses owned by the Dutch company Vandri, a global giant in industrial veal exploitation. According to spokesperson Tifen Lagard, the company kills a staggering 1.8 million calves annually, with a business turnover of 3.4 billion euros. The activists literally placed themselves between the animals and the knives, trying to hold out as long as possible under pressure from police and security forces.
Vandri – The King of Industrial Veal Exploitation
Vandri is not just another company – it is the world leader in mass veal meat production. Their slaughterhouses have been the target of numerous criticisms for brutality and inhumanity towards animals. Activists claim the blockade aims to inflict serious economic losses on this multinational company and draw public attention to the horrific conditions in which animals are kept and slaughtered.
Police Response – Arrests and Chain Blockades
Dutch media report that police have already arrested dozens of demonstrators, including those who chained themselves to machines inside the slaughterhouses. Activists organized to block entrances and exits, forcing police to intervene and disperse the protesters. However, the “Animal Liberation” group claims some members remain inside certain slaughterhouses, which authorities have yet to confirm.
Reactions and Consequences
This massive action has sparked a storm of reactions in the public and industry. While some praise the activists’ courage and dedication to animal protection, others condemn their illegal actions and potential economic damage. The price of veal on the market has already reached record levels, and rising prices of pigs and beef calves further complicate the meat industry situation.
Why Does This Matter?
This blockade is not just a protest – it is a wake-up call for all of Europe! While Vandri and similar companies continue mass killing millions of animals, activists show that this brutality can and must be stopped. Will this be the beginning of the end of industrial veal exploitation or just another episode in the long fight for animal rights?
Conclusion
Hundreds of activists, six slaughterhouses, one mission – to save animals and expose the dark side of the meat industry. Vandri and similar giants are now in the spotlight, and the world is watching. Will we finally change the rules of the game, or will profit remain more important than life?
If you thought slaughterhouses were just places where meat is cut, think again. This night showed that we can and must fight for those who have no voice. What about you? Would you join such an action or prefer a calmer protest? Drop a comment, let your voice be heard!
