"Greta Thunberg Detained Twice At Demonstration In The Hague" [1]

"THE HAGUE - Climate activist Greta Thunberg was detained twice by police at a demonstration in The Hague, the Netherlands, for several hours on Saturday.

Thunberg was initially detained and held for a short time by local police along with other protesters who tried to block a major highway into The Hague.

After she was released Thunberg quickly rejoined a small group of protesters who were blocking a different road leading to the railway station. There, she was detained a second time and driven off in a police van."

Stephanie van der Berg, Piroschka van der Wouw, and Bart Meijer report for Reuters April 6, 2024. [2]
