Climate Activists Vandalize Monet Painting in Stockholm Museum
Climate activists from the organization Aterstall Vatmarker smeared red paint and glued their hands to the protective glass of a Monet painting at Stockholm's National Museum, claiming that the climate catastrophe is also a health crisis. The museum is examining the painting to see if there has been any damage. The two women, a nurse and a nursing student, were arrested, and the organization accused the Swedish government of not respecting its international climate commitments. The museum expressed opposition to actions that risk damaging works of art.
