The young Swedish activist, Greta Thunberg, is among those arrested for protesting against the expansion of a coal mine in Germany.
According to the authorities at the site, the group that Thunberg was a part of got very close to where the mine begins, so they were withdrawn for their safety.
“She has been moved with this group out of the imminent danger zone to identify her,” a police spokesman told Reuters.
In a video, three police officers are seen carrying Thunberg to get her away from the scene.
