Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg has been arrested by Dutch police
at a protest in The Hague.

The 21-year-old joined hundreds of protesters in a march against fossil
fuel subsidies on Saturday.

The protest devolved into a standoff as dozens of police officers, some on
horseback, attempted to stop protesters from blocking a main road.

Local police put Ms Thunberg on a bus full of demonstrators and she was
driven away from the scene.

Protesters had planned to block The Hague's A12 highway for what Extinction
Rebellion (XR) organisers say was the 37th time. The road has been subject
to regular blockades since 2022.
