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.
