London: Three Just Stop Oil (JSO) supporters on Friday threw liquid over two Vincent van Gogh paintings at London's National Gallery, just hours after two group activists were jailed for a similar act.
The gallery said "a soup-like substance" had been thrown over two works -- "Sunflowers" (1888) and "Sunflowers" (1889) -- and that three people had been arrested.
JSO posted footage on its X account, adding that three supporters had thrown soup over two of Van Gogh paintings in the gallery's "Poets and Lovers" exhibition.
The group said the act was a "sign of defiance" after two activists were jailed earlier Friday for throwing soup at the "Sunflowers" (1888) painting in October 2022.
It named the supporters involved in the latest protest as Phil Green, 24, Ludi Simpson, a 71-year-old retired professor, and Mary Patricia Somerville, a 77-year-old grandmother.
