BERLIN ? German police say 20 policemen have been injured during clashes with protesters ahead of the arrival of a shipment of nuclear waste in northern Germany.
Police say some 300 protesters threw stones and fireworks at security officers near the town of Dannenberg Saturday.
It followed a clash on Friday night when police used water cannons and batons to keep some 200 protesters in check. The officers were injured during the clash.
The protests occurred near the railway tracks used by a train this weekend to transport the nuclear waste shipment reprocessed in France to a storage site near the town of Gorleben.
Some 20,000 officers are on hand in the region to secure the shipment.
Officials have yet to resolve where such waste should be stored permanently. Activists say Gorleben is unsafe.
