An Air Canada Airbus A330-300, registration C-GHLM performing flight AC-876 from Toronto,ON (Canada) to Frankfurt/Main (Germany) with 265 passengers, was cleared for takeoff from runway 06R at 22:35L (02:35Z Aug 5th) while taxiing along taxiway D ahead of runway 06L just crossing the hold short line before runway 06L (labelled "CAT II HOLD" at the chart below) when the left main gear left paved surface disabling the aircraft on the taxiway already penetrating the protected runway 06L area.

The airline confirmed the aircraft accidentally taxied into the grass. The passengers have been taken to hotels and are going to be rebooked onto other flights on Friday.
