Activist arrested for attacking Monet painting in Paris

French police on Saturday arrested a climate activist who staged a protest attack on a priceless Claude Monet painting at the Musee d'Orsay in Paris, prosecutors said. Monet appears to be a favourite target for climate activists elsewhere, too, with paintings by the Impressionist having previously come under attack in Potsdam, Germany, and in Stockholm. burs/tw/imm
