Activists pour blood-red dye into US Embassy pond in protest against arms sales to Israel
[Greenpeace]
SIX Greenpeace activists were arrested today following a demonstration outside the US embassy in London against the continued sale of arms to Israel.
Protesters tipped 300 litres of non-toxic, biodegradable blood-red dye from containers with the words “Stop Arming Israel” written on into a large pond in front of the embassy building.
The containers were delivered to the embassy on bicycles disguised as delivery couriers.
