Activists of the "Last Generation" once again stuck themselves on a street in Munich during a climate protest and blocked traffic.

According to a police spokesman, nine people stuck to the road on Monday at Karlsplatz (Stachus).

They wore warning vests and drew attention to their demands with posters.

The traffic had been diverted, but the disabilities were "moderate," it said.

The "Last Generation" had announced further and intensified disruptive actions starting this week.

As a police spokesman said on Monday, the city of Munich had issued a conditional notice for the meeting after the activist group had announced.

By sticking it on the street, however, the activists would have violated these requirements.

There are currently no plans to break up the protest.

In the past few weeks, activists have blocked roads, damaged works of art and paralyzed air traffic at BER Airport in Berlin.

In Bavaria, some activists were jailed as a precaution because they had announced further disturbances.

Among other things, the group is demanding a speed limit of 100 kilometers per hour on motorways and a 9-euro train ticket for the whole of Germany.
