Frankfurt airport temporarily halts flights due to climate protesters blocking runways
ai generated text
Climate activists staged a demonstration at Frankfurt Airport in Germany, temporarily suspending flights. The protesters, affiliated with the group Last Generation, glued themselves to a taxiway and cut a hole in the fencing to access the runway. The airport initially advised passengers not to travel to the facility, but later reported that flight operations were gradually resuming. The protest was aimed at pushing the German government to pursue an international agreement to exit coal, oil, and gas by 2030.
Airports are places where it becomes apparent that what was seen as normal in the past is something we cannot afford anymore today. Gas and coal are threatening our existence.
