One year on and 6 of the 8 Sudanese men who went on hunger strike in Sweden last summer (http://www.indymedia.ie/article/76869 ), have been granted asylum. One of them got full asylum granted by the migration court. The other five each got one year temporary asylum in order to give them time to prove their identities to the migration board. If they do this they will be granted full asylum next year. The seventh man, who was initially turned down, will have his case heard again due to a procedural flaw in his original application process. The eighth man is still waiting for a decision from the migration board. A ninth Sudanese asylum seeker, who did not hunger strike, has had his application rejected in court. His support group are now applying to the supreme migration court to have the case re-examined. read full story / add a comment

On Tuesday morning, June 5th, a team of five protesters and their support crew successfully halted Shells operation in Erris for five hours through the use of "lock-On" arm tubes. The blockade ended with the five being cut loose from each other by the fire brigade and arrested whilst a crowd of around thirty people cheered them on. Shramore is the final stop on the peat haulage route from the site of the proposed gas refinery at Bellanaboy. Terence Conway of Shell to Sea in Mayo who was present at the protest said "this is an outrageous deal, the government has consistently put out myths about the benefits of this project for the people of Ireland. There are no benefits of this project for the people of Ireland, there are no royalties and all tax is cost deductible which means that Shell, Statoil and Marathon benefit from the deal while the people of Ireland don't benefit at all. This deal needs to be renegotiated immediately". read full story / add a comment

The 142 square kilometre Bombodrom (80 km north of Berlin) was used as a bombing range by the Soviet army for 40 years. Since 1992 the German military has been trying to take over the facility to establish an air-ground bombing range for German, EU and NATO forces to conduct combined operations of air and ground forces. In protesting at the site the demonstrators are trying to highlight the connection between the G8 and war and to clearly show their rejection and resistance to war (for more see http://www.g8andwar.de). read full story / add a comment
