About 60 Greenpeace activists from 14 different countries protest at the Fessenheim nuclear plant against the risk caused by ageing nuclear power plants in Europe. The activists from several European countries (France, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, Italy, Switzerland, Poland, Czech Republic, Sweden, Slovenia and Austria) and non-European countries (Australia, Turkey and Israel) have unfurled a banner next to reactor n°1 with the message "Stop Risking Europe". Other activists climbed on top of the reactor and on its pool. With barrels at the entrance and a banner at the reactor they are demanding the shutdown of the plant. The nuclear power station Fessenheim is an old plant and only 1 kilometer from the German border.
