Two protesters on Sunday hurled soup at the bullet-proof glass protecting Leonardo da Vinci‍‍`s "Mona Lisa" in Paris, demanding the right to "healthy and sustainable food", an AFP journalist said.

It is the latest attack on the masterpiece in the French capital‍‍`s Louvre museum, after someone threw a custard pie at it in May 2022, but it‍‍`s thick glass casing ensured it came to no harm.
