Search for Resistance fighters WW2

Loon op het Zand

Archaelogist from the Dutch Forensic Institute searched a spot where maybe was something in the ground.
They used prods and did soil drills to examine the ground.
They were looking for a mass grave out of the second world war.

They were looking for 14 people of the resistance who were buried there from May 1944, but nothing was found.
A few weeks ago a army unit was doing exercises in that area, they were exercising with detectors and they noticed there was something in the ground.
They thought of a mass grave that possibly was located in the area. Also someone in the neighbourhood gave a tip to search in the area.

This man saw pits in the ground, from which he thought the resistance fighters could be in, who were shot by the Germans in 1944.
Nothing was found, and with the aging of the eyewitnesses, the change of finding the 14 men , is getting slim.

Bird flu

The Netherlands

The Federal Agency for the Safety of the Food Chain (AFSCA), is following the outbreak of bird flu on a turkeyfarm in Limburg. "Everything depends on whether it is a mild or severe form of bird flu", says the spokeswoman of the Agency on Sunday.

It is suspected that it is a mild variant of the bird flu virus, but that has yet to be confirmed.
If it is a mild variant, additional measures are probably unnecessary. If it still is a highly pathogenic variant found, measures will be taken in Belgium.

The discovery of the virus on a farm in Kelpen-Oler, was reported on Saturday. The 42,700 turkeys on the farm were cleared on Sunday. Since midnight there is an transport limitation, in an area of three kilometers around the company for the transport of poultry, eggs and poultry manure .Ruminants such as cows and other livestock from a mixed farm may not be moved.
