Frankfurt Airport Hit by Climate Protest Disruptions

Climate activists from the group Last Generation disrupted operations at Frankfurt Airport, Germany's busiest, by gluing themselves to the tarmac, causing about 140 flight cancellations and temporary suspension of air traffic. The activists, who are demanding an end to fossil fuel use by 2030, managed to breach the airport's security by cutting through fences and reaching various points on the runways. This protest follows a similar disruption at Cologne-Bonn Airport and is part of a broader campaign targeting airports across Europe. German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser condemned the actions, which resulted in numerous arrests and charges including dangerous interference with air traffic and trespassing.
