Greta Thunberg

Greta Thunberg is a Swedish climate activist who gained international recognition for her efforts to raise awareness about climate change. She is newsworthy due to her recent involvement in pro-Palestinian protests in Europe. In December 2025, Thunberg was arrested in London while protesting in support of Palestinian prisoners on hunger strike. She was detained for holding a placard outside the insurer of an Israeli arms manufacturer. Prior to this, in November 2025, Thunberg participated in pro-Palestine protests in Genoa, Italy, alongside a UN official, Francesca Albanese. These actions highlight Thunberg's continued activism, extending beyond climate issues to include advocacy for Palestinian rights and opposition to Israeli policies. Her involvement in these protests maintains her relevance as a prominent voice on global issues and a figure who draws significant media attention.
