Climate activists have been stuck on the tarmac of Munich airport since early morning. “The airport is closed for safety reasons,” said an airport spokesperson.
According to their own statements, members of the so-called last generation planned to enter the airport grounds to block at least one of the two runways. They wanted to disrupt the start of traveling at the start of the Pentecost holidays. In the past, the group carried out similar actions at various German airports.
As the airport spokesperson explained, initially only scheduled landings in Munich from 5 a.m. were affected, as takeoffs were only allowed to take place from 6 a.m. The incoming planes were initially diverted to other airports.
