London's Heathrow to cancel some flights due to runway protest

 

LONDON: London's Heathrow Airport said it may have to cancel some flights on Monday as police tried to remove activists who had gained access to a runway to protest against the possible expansion of the airport.

"Both runways are open, although there will still be delays and a few cancellations," the airport said in an emailed statement.

Heathrow was selected as the site for a new runway in south east England earlier this month.
