About 70 undocumented migrants who occupy the former KBC building on Havenlaan in Brussels, empty on Monday morning to another building, in the Papenvest. On Monday evening, the police started evicting them from the building on the orders of the mayor, the Brussels-Capital/Ixelles police zone confirmed to Belga.
“The building has to be demolished. It is not sufficiently equipped and safe to accommodate families with children,” said police. “That is why these people are evicted from the building on the orders of the mayor.”
