The Central Agency for the Reception of Asylum Seekers (COA) urgently asked the municipality of Apeldoorn on Wednesday for emergency shelter for asylum seekers. Due to the “unsustainable situation in Ter Apel”, the municipality responded to that call. The number of people is divided over reception locations in two sports halls in the city, Sporthal Zuiderpark and Sporthal Mheenpark. There was some unrest among spectators when the first refugees arrived at Sporthal Zuiderpark. The police and security guards have turned the spectators away.

Despite the shelter in Apeldoorn, according to the COA, in the night from Thursday to Friday, about 700 people again sleep outside the application center in Ter Apel.
