Munich‘s airport was briefly closed early on Saturday after climate activists breached the grounds and glued themselves to a runway, a spokesperson said.

One of two runways is now open but there will be delays, the spokesperson said.

The breach occurred during one of the busiest travel periods for the airport in southern Germany.

A series of posts on X by the climate activists Last Generation show members on what appears to be a runway or tarmac with protest signs.

The worsening condition of the network was a worry for Paul Goodwin, co-founder of the Scottish Football Supporters Association, who had a warning for the country’s army of travelling fans. “Beware Scotland fans — make sure you are taking the earlier train,” he told AFP, adding those staying far from venues would likely be reliant on the railways to get to and from games.

“A total of six people are sitting in two groups on different locations of the Munich airport,” the post reads.
