Greenpeace 'boards Cairn platform' off Greenland
Greenpeace say four of their protesters climbed on board the Cairn rig Greenpeace has claimed to have boarded a Scottish company's oil platform off Greenland.

The environmental campaign organisation said Edinburgh-based Cairn Energy's rig had been boarded by four members.

Greenpeace said the climbers had enough supplies to occupy hanging tents for several days.

Cairn has so far not commented. The company had announced last week it had discovered gas off the coast of Greenland.
