Paris Protests: Activists throw soup at glass-protected Mona Lisa amid farmers' protest | Oneindia
In a startling incident at the Louvre Museum in Paris, two climate activists threw soup at the protective glass of the Mona Lisa, the iconic masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci.
The activists, with "FOOD RIPOSTE" on their shirts, advocated for a sustainable food system, linking the act to protests by French farmers highlighting issues like low wages.
The activists questioned the prioritisation of art over the right to healthy and sustainable food, emphasising the challenges faced by the farming system and the plight of farmers.
In a dramatic turn of events, French President Emmanuel Macron’s announcement to recognise Palestine as a state at the upcoming United Nations General Assembly has triggered unrest in the French capital. As public sentiment intensifies, Paris witnessed targeted vandalism against the Israeli airline El Al’s office. While Macron's move has been praised by pro-Palestinian voices, it has also deepened political fault lines across Europe. This exclusive ground report brings you voices from France, reactions from legal experts and students, footage from protests across the continent, and the growing debate over Europe's shifting stance on Palestine.

Inside a peaceful Parisian park lies a powerful story of faith, exile, and identity. Every year, Tibetans gather at the Pagoda of Vincennes for the Sakya Monlam prayer—thousands of kilometers from their homeland. As tensions rise with China over the Dalai Lama’s successor, refugees like Tenzing and Lobsang share their fears, hopes, and ties to India—whom they call their “second homeland.” This is more than a spiritual gathering—it's a silent resistance for a forgotten people.
