Activists from Greenpeace Nordic prevented the ship Coral Energy from delivering a cargo of Russian fossil gas at a liquified natural gas (LNG) terminal in Nynäshamn, south of Stockholm. 

Protestors reportedly climbed cranes to unload gas from the ship.

Meanwhile, Greenpeace sailing vessel SY Witness and activists in kayaks are in the water to prevent the ship from docking.

The activist organisation is demanding that Sweden immediately stops the the import of Russian fossil gas.

Karolina Carlsson, campaign leader at Greenpeace Nordic, said: “The fact that Russian fossil gas is still allowed to flow into Sweden, more than six months after Putin began his invasion of Ukraine, is unacceptable.

“The Parliament has given the Swedish government a clear mandate to stop all imports of Russian energy to Sweden and it is Prime minister Magdalena Andersson’s obligation to act on this.”
