Dutch authorities detained prominent Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg twice on Saturday, when she joined Extinction Rebellion demonstrators to occupy a motorway in The Hague, Netherlands.

Thunberg was initially detained and held for a short time by local police, then was detained a second time after she quickly rejoined a small group of protesters blocking a road leading to the city's main railway station after she was released.

At that point, she and others were taken away in a police van.

A spokesperson for the group Extinction Rebellion said Thunberg had been held for several hours before being released in the evening.

Thunberg had joined members of Extinction Rebellion to protest Dutch fossil fuel subsidies.

Dozens of police officers, including several on horseback, were seen blocking protesters from getting onto the A12 motorway leading to the national parliament in The Hague.

Activists from the group have blocked the highway more than 30 times previously to protest the subsidies.

Police later announced on X, formerly Twitter, that they had arrested more than 400 people throughout the course of the day for ignoring orders to disperse.

The demonstrators waved and chanted: "We are unstoppable, another world is possible."

"It's important to demonstrate today because we are living in a state of planetary emergency," Thunberg told AFP news agency. "We must do everything to avoid that crisis and to save human lives," she added.

Asked whether she was worried about being arrested, Thunberg said: "Why should I be?"

Extinction Rebellion has said it will continue to hold protests until the Dutch government stops using public funds to subsidize the oil and gas industry.

"Meanwhile the ecological crisis continues to rage and the country's outgoing cabinet pretends that we have all the time in the world, while the crisis is now," Extinction Rebellion said in a statement posted on X.

The protest was part of a plan to apply pressure on the Dutch government ahead of a planned debate about fossil fuel subsidies in June.
