Three Just Stop Oil activists threw soup at two of Vincent van Gogh’s paintings in London’s National Gallery. This act of defiance followed the jailing of two activists for a similar stunt in 2022. The targeted artworks, including "Sunflowers," were unharmed, but the frames were slightly damaged. The group seeks to draw attention to the climate crisis and demand an end to fossil fuel licensing. The activists were arrested, and Just Stop Oil emphasized their stance against the UK government’s environmental policies.
