This comes after Just Stop Oil protesters linked to Extinction Rebellion were removed from a crane and arrested in London on Thursday after boarding an oil tanker at one of the busiest roundabouts in the UK.
Members of the group clung to the top of the tanker Eddie Stobart at the Chiswick roundabout in West London around 9 a.m. Thursday morning.
Footage shows police removing activists from the vehicle with a crane, and a video shows a woman being taken into a police van.
The Just Stop Oil Group said it had “no choice but to act”, adding that the aim of the demonstration was “to stop the flow of oil to London in support of their demand that the UK government stop new oil and gas projects in the UK “.
