Two climate activists swim naked in front of the Royal Palace in Madrid 

Two activists of climate group Futuro Vegetal swam naked in a fountain just outside the Royal Palace in Madrid on Thursday evening.

The two women, covered in red paint representing blood, went for a swim in front of the emblematic building with nothing on.

They also climbed the stone lions within the top of the fountain and hung a banner of their group. 

Through their actions, the organisation wants to denounce that “the monarchy has actively taken part in the plundering of the resources of the Iberian Peninsula.”
