Climate activists have sabotaged petrol pumps and blocked forecourts at two motorway service stations.
Supporters of Just Stop Oil smashed display glass and covered it in spray paint at the pumps at Cobham Services in Surrey and Clacket Lane Services in Kent at 7am on Thursday.
They then glued themselves to the pumps, signs and the top of a lorry.
The group also blocked motorists from entering the forecourts.
