Just Stop Oil activists throw soup over £76m Sunflowers painting by Van Gogh

Activists from Just Stop Oil have been arrested after throwing tins of soup over Vincent Van Gogh's famous Sunflowers painting at the National Gallery - and then gluing themselves to a nearby wall.

A video has emerged on Twitter of the incident at the London gallery this morning. Two young women identified themselves as Anna Holland, 20, and 21-year-old Phoebe Plummer.

The pair can be seen in the clip kneeling down in front of the already defaced painting holding tins of Heinz Tomato Soup, reports the Mirror.
