Climate activists disrupted air traffic at Frankfurt am Main airport on Thursday morning.
As a result, flights at Germany&#8217;s busiest airport had to be halted briefly.
In the course of the morning, the flight schedule was gradually resumed.
Protesters from action group Letzte Generation cut open a fence and placed banners in various places around the runways with the text &#8216;Oil kills&#8217;.
&#8220;The continued exploitation and burning of oil, gas and coal is a threat to our survival,&#8221; the activists declared.
According to an airport spokesperson, seven people were able to break through security in the early morning and stick to the start and end of two central runways.
However, all four runways were back in use before 8:00 a.m.
Two activists have since been released and handed over to the police for further investigation.
As a result of climate action, around 140 flights have been cancelled at Frankfurt Airport.
Airport operator Fraport has warned of further delays during the course of the day.
Passengers are advised to check their flight status on the airlines&#8217; websites before traveling to the airport.
A total of 1,400 take-offs and landings were planned for Thursday.
Cologne Bonn Airport had to suspend flights for several hours on Wednesday after climate activists glued themselves to a runway.
That demonstration was also organized by Letzte Generation.
Similar actions also took place on Wednesday at airports in other European countries, including London and Oslo.                (Photo Shutterstock).

Brussels Airport is increasingly presenting itself as an alternative to the busy Schiphol.
If it were up to director Arnaud Feist, his airport would only receive more Dutch people in the future, he says in NRC.
When asked if he sees more interest from the Netherlands, he says: &#8216;Absolutely. If you go into the parking lot now, you will see a lot of yellow number plates. I think we are attractive to Dutch people, especially from the south of the country. The Dutch airline Transavia stationed a third aircraft here in June.&#8217; &#8216;About a million Dutch people a year fly from Brussels. Pre-covid, it was 600,000. This is partly thanks to Transavia, Corendon and TUI. Our ambition is to attract even more Dutch people.&#8217;

However, we are not in favour of a cap on the number of flight movements. We want to limit our impact on the environment as much as possible. Then it must be a cap on gelúíd. That is relevant for local residents, not the number of flights.&#8217; He adds: &#8216;And remember, aviation also has its advantages. The people who are going on holiday here today are all happy. It&#8217;s always the same negative discussion now. That never ceases to amaze me,&#8221; he told the newspaper.(Photo Brussels Airport).
