Still Waters Posted September 25, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 25, 2013 Russian coastguards have taken 30 Greenpeace activists off their ship in the Arctic and detained them in the port of Murmansk. The activists, who were protesting against oil drilling in the Arctic, were towed for four days in their ship, the Arctic Sunrise. Russia prosecutors have accused them of piracy after two activists climbed onto the side of an offshore oil platform. http://www.bbc.co.uk...europe-24238251 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
