RADIO UNIVERSIDAD CURRENTLY UNDER ATTACK BY PFP

By Radio Zapote

People resist a huge attack by federal forces, the situation is critical

This day a violent attack is about to make the University and its radio fall under
government forces.

During the whole morning, Radio Universidad, has been under attack from the Federal
Police (PFP). Barricades have been falling one after another by this repressive
force. Many have been injured and others have been detained. Reports are coming in
constantly of how police have been using tear gas, many have been injured and
detained. The announcer at Radio Universidad keeps calling for calm and to resist in
a pacific way.

Thousands of police corps are closing in. Helicopters have been removing people
detained by police. Helicopters are throwing gas grenades. Incoming calls to the
station are from desperate people reporting from the front lines. Riot tanks are
reportedly being used in this offensive. Many of these reports have been confirmed
by Indymedia reporters on the site. Right now gas is falling on the radio station
thrown from helicopters.

Sports installations have already fallen under the control of police, which violates
the University?s autonomy. Riot tanks are already breaking in. Police are placing
fire arms inside the University for making false accusations.

If this radio falls, the movement will be hit in the most important strategic point,
and information flow from Oaxaca will be cut off.

The call in the city is to reinforce Ciudad Uiversitaria. For the outside the call
is for mobilizing and to protest.
