In the early hours of this Thursday, the eviction of the Guernica property began, after the Justice rejected the possibility of a third extension for the operation.
As
Clarín was
able to reconstruct
, at 3:30 a.m. the operation began to be prepared in the vicinity of the occupied land with Buenos Aires Police officers, which was described as
"a true army"
by the occupiers.
"They have just cut off the electricity in the entire neighborhood and the surrounding areas.
There is a huge army that is advancing on Néstor Kirchner street
and another on 210, advancing towards the Guernica settlement where people ask for a piece of land," described the leader from Polo Obrero Eduardo Belliboni, to
Clarín
.
About 5 o'clock, the leader recounted the operation carried out with
"assault cars, motorcycles, horses"
and "hundreds" of troops ready for the operation.
It is actually estimated that there were about 4,000.
The eviction of the seized lands was carried out amid strong incidents, with stones, some shots of rubber bullets and some people detained by the troops.

"
In the midst of a pandemic, a very violent eviction with an army
that is the enemy of the people, which should be taking care of security, but they are hitting boys and women with a huge operation," Belliboni continued.
After 8 o'clock, another source confirmed that
"there is no one left on the premises"
and that "some colleagues are resisting in the surroundings."
A while before, in full session of the Congress for the Budget, Deputy
Romina del Plá
, from the Partido Obrero like Belliboni, asked "to end the repression."
On Wednesday, the Minister of Security, Sergio Berni, asked the Justice to postpone until Monday the eviction of the land grab in Guernica, 48 hours before the deadline expires.

It is the governor Axel Kicillof and Berni who the groups point to near the capture, which after 9 in the morning continues in a climate of tension.
"The neighbors continue to resist the eviction
," Gabriela, another activist of the Polo Obrero, added to this media.
And he said that there are "a huge number of wounded, detainees and companions whose whereabouts are unknown."
The versions speak of at least "one seriously injured".
