<p>Three members of Extinction Rebellion Scotland climbed aboard the Valaris 122 rig at the Port of Dundee on Monday.</p>
<p>Five activists set out in a boat at about 11.30am and three made it on board, climbing halfway up one of the legs of the rig.</p>
<p>They came down about five hours later due to deteriorating weather conditions.</p>
<p>Three women and four men were arrested in connection with the incident and appeared at Dundee Sheriff Court today.</p>
<p>Fiona Comrie, 25, from Nairn; Alison Orr, 27, from Dundee; Mark Quinn, 21, from Aberdeen, and Federico Pastoris, 24, Marco Tenconi, 23, and Joanne Venables, 35, all from Edinburgh, were charged with breach of the peace and possessing a blade or pointed implement in public.</p>
<p>Guy Bowen, 31, from Glasgow, was charged with breach of the peace.</p>
<p>None of the seven-strong group entered a plea and all were released on bail.</p>
