Climate activists disrupted traffic at Munich airport

Activists of the German climate protection group Utolsó Nemzedék penetrated the protected zone of the airport of the Bavarian state capital in an as yet unknown way, where they attached themselves to the pavement of one of the runways with glue.

Due to the four activists who had settled in the path of the planes, traffic only took place on one runway for about three quarters of an hour, but no flights had to be canceled. Federal police "removed" the intruders "very quickly," an airport spokesman told state public broadcaster Bayerischer Rundfunk.

At the same time as the action in Munich, several activists also tried to paralyze traffic at the Berlin International Airport. Two of them got into the area for the movement of the machines, where they also attached themselves to a taxiway, but they were removed almost immediately.

The group, which demands an immediate increase in climate protection efforts, has carried out a number of similar awareness-raising and protest actions in recent months. They have already tried to paralyze the Berlin airport, on November 24 traffic stopped for several hours due to their activists occupying one of the runways, and a day earlier two members of the group attached themselves to the conductor's podium during a concert in Hamburg's world-famous concert palace, the Elba Philharmonic.
