NOW: Hundreds of people disrupt high-level fossil lobby event #EuropeanGasConference in Vienna, blocking access roads to the venue.

At the conference, fossil fuel corporations meet investors & political representatives to decide on major energy projects. #BlockGas #endgas 1/x
Protesters taking the streets around the #EuropeanGasConference demand an end to the destructive fossil projects being planned behind closed doors at the EGC and call for comprehensive changes in order to create a just energy system. #EndGas #BlockGas #w2703 2/x
The corporations and investors meeting at the #EuropeanGasConference are wrecking our climate and chaining us to an energy system that means high energy bills for the many but only high profits for themselves. #endgas #blockgas #w2703 3/x (C) Max Sabitzer
Many of the gas projects discussed at the #EuropeanGasConference concern countries in the Global South.

“African land is not a gas station!" That's what comrades from @DontGasAfrica say, who are visiting Vienna because of the EGC. #blockgas #nogas #w2703 (C) Franz Hagmann 4/x
One of the worst at the #EuropeanGasConference: #BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager with 8.6 trillion USD under management.

Pension funds & other investors give their money to BlackRock, who invests it in expanding fossil gas infrastructure #blockgas 5/x (C) M Sabitzer
Today marks the beginning of the end of this fossil gas madness. This must be the last European Gas Conference! We will reclaim the power! #BlockGas #EndGas #w2703 6/6

OMV and other fossil corporations are perpetrators of fossil crimes. Their locked-door deals lock in climate desaster and colonialism. They are responsible for environmental destruction and human rights violations!

OMV Petrom in Romania are responsible for the death of a child who was poisoned with gas near one of the companies gas wells. A few years later, another child was killed in the same way.

OMV Petrom was also found guilty in court for causing dangerous amounts of air pollution and falling short on even minimal measures for green house gas reduction.

BREAKING: the law!

300 people are blocking the road access and rails of OMV's oil refinery.

OMV is the sponsor of the #EuropeanGasConference. We demand the expropriation of fossil corporations. Energy belongs in the people's hands! #blockgas #endgas #w2803

OMV is not only one of the world's 100 most climate-damaging corporations. It has also been a sponsor of the major lobby gathering #EuropeanGasConference for years, until last year together with Gazprom. #blockgas #endgas #w2803

Even in times of massive social and ecological crises, OMV continues to sponsor the #EuropeanGasConference! OMV will not stop doing business with fossil energies until we stop them!

*** Update von der Rechtshilfe ***

Liebe Genoss:innen, vielen der heute festgenommen Aktivist:innen, wird "schwere gemeinschaftliche Gewalt" (§ 274 StGB) vorgeworfen. Dieser wird auch oft als Ermittlungsparagraph eingesetzt.
Das heißt, er wird herangezogen um Aktivist:innen gleich einmal für bis zu 48h im Polizeianhaltezentrum (PAZ) festhalten zu können, auch wenn er später oft fallengelassen wird.
Auch in diesem Fall entbehren die Vorwürfe jeglicher Grundlage. Es ist ein Skandal, dass dadurch die Klimabewegung ein weiteres Mal kriminalisiert wird.

Passt weiterhin aufeinander auf, verweigert die Aussage und schreibt euch die Rehi-Nummer auf den Arm: +4367764177467
