> Authorities forcibly removed activists from the University of Vienna entrance on Wednesday after an unannounced protest was dissolved.

Several activists occupied the entrance area of the University of Vienna at Schottentor on Wednesday. Police responded to the campus with multiple emergency units after the demonstration began unannounced, according to police spokesperson Irina Steirer.

Authorities officially dissolved the unannounced protest at 3:45 p.m. While some participants left voluntarily, others refused to vacate the entrance area despite police orders. Officers then began physically removing the remaining individuals from the site.
