Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.

According to Euskal Irrati Telebista, the EiTB radios have echoed what happened. The event occurred about 500 metres from San Juan de Luz (Lapurdi) train station. The police have cut the way in both directions and opened an investigation to clarify the causes that have led to the event. The mayor of Ziburu, Eneko Aldana, confirmed what happened, indicating that the three deaths and the wounded were sleeping on the train tracks. It has not ensured that these are migrants, nor that those who have died are injured or taken to any centre. Shortly afterwards, however, it was confirmed by the Baiona prosecutor, Jerôme Bourrier, who refused to participate.

The newspaper Berria, for its part, has taken up the statements of Peio Dufau, elected from Ziburu by the National Court. He's a driver of his own office. The police are persecuting them everywhere. Two drowned in the Bidasoa River, which shows that they take all the roads to escape the border and reach Baiona. Rail is one of the most dangerous routes that controls face. It is also difficult for rail workers. They are astonished at the dangers that lurk them, because they are too controlled. What changes the obstruction? What changes? They won't stay for the police.
