Hundreds of environmental activists wearing white overalls stormed on Saturday an area holding private jets at Amsterdam’s Schiphol Airport, blocking planes from taking off for hours by sitting in front of their wheels.

Military police stormed the scene and were seen transporting dozens of protesters in buses. According to national broadcaster NOS, more than 100 activists were arrested.

Greenpeace and Extinction Rebellion organized a day of protests in and around the airport in preparation for the COP27 climate talks in Egypt.
