Watch as Just Stop Oil protesters are arrested at airport on suspicion of conspiracy to disrupt it.

Seven eco demonstrators were apprehended by Met Police officers at around 9am on Wednesday morning (July 24) on perimeter roads around Heathrow Airport. A further two arrests were made at around 10.50am.

Just Stop Oil said that the action came amid an “international uprising”. This included German protesters blocking air traffic at Cologne Bonn Airport, as well as other disruption at airports in Oslo, Helsinki, Barcelona, Zurich and Geneva.

The Met Police confirmed that the protesters were intercepted before any disruption to Heathrow Airport.

A spokesperson said: “These arrests have prevented significant disruption to the airport and the travelling public.”
