Several people have been arrested at a climate protest in Newcastle that involved hundreds of activists taking to the city's harbour in canoes and kayaks.

In short:

Activism group Rising Tide says multiple people have been arrested at an anti-fossil fuels demonstration in Newcastle.

Thousands have attended the multi-day protest, where Midnight Oil front man Peter Garrett delivered a speech and performed.

What’s next?

The demonstration is expected to continue until Sunday evening.
