Swedish activist Greta Thunberg burst out laughing during an interview for a documentary when she was told that Fridays for Future, the climate protest movement she founded in 2018, is still holding demonstrations.

The moment was captured during filming of the documentary "On Tanks into the Climate Crisis – How Activism is Criminalised." During the conversation, Thunberg was told that the movement was holding a protest in Berlin that very day.

Thunberg, one of the movement's founders, appeared surprised and asked, "Really? They're still doing that?" She then broke into loud laughter together with a friend, before finally calling out to the crew, "Cut!"

Thunberg, now aged 23, has in recent years largely set aside climate activism in favor of vigorous anti-Israel protest. According to Kikar HaShabbat, she was responsible for several protest flotillas that sailed toward Gaza and were stopped by IDF forces.
