Washington, Aug. 2 (ANI): Two topless female protesters from the infamous Ukrainian-based group FEMEN jumped into the Russian embassy in Stockholm to protest against the country's anti-gay bill and stigmatization of homosexuals.

Police were called to the embassy to remove the activists, who climbed over the fence. They were released after confessing to trespassing.

According to the New York Daily News, the two women waved a rainbow flag at the embassy's ground and carried a sign saying 'homosexual propaganda on Russian ground'.

They were supported by two other activists outside the embassy, who shouted 'Gay Rights are Human Rights'.

The report said that one of the activists, Jenny Wenhammar, said the group was protesting against a recently enacted Russian law, which imposes hefty fines for holding gay pride rallies or providing information about the gay community to minors. (ANI)
