Protest in Germany against Uranium Hexafluoride Transport to Russia

Greenpeace Germany activists together with local and Russian initiatives' members, protest against the transport of uranium hexafluoride (UF6) to Russia at the Uranium Enrichment Facility (UEF) of URENCO in Gronau.
They place a round banner in Russian language in front of the entrance, which reads: "Russia is not a dump site for uranium waste from Germany."
UF6 is a waste product of the uranium enrichment process and Greenpeace demands the halt of nuclear waste transport.
On the next day the protest continues on a bridge over the rails of the transport train. Greenpeace experts measure the radiation. Environmental activists try to disrupt the transport by climbing on the trees with banners and flags.
