Climate activists from the group "Last Generation" disrupted operations at Frankfurt Airport early Thursday morning, causing significant flight cancellations and delays.

Seven activists managed to breach security and glue themselves to the runway, leading to the suspension of all flights for several hours.

The protest was part of a coordinated effort across multiple countries, demanding a transition away from fossil fuels by 2030. In response, German authorities are considering stricter penalties for such actions, with recent legislation proposing up to two years in prison for similar disruptions.

Politicians have condemned the protests, emphasizing the risks posed to public safety and the need for harsher consequences for the activists' actions.

The airport has since resumed operations, but travelers are advised to check their flight statuses due to ongoing delays.
