A pro-Palestinian activist released hordes of mice inside a McDonald's store in the UK for its alleged support for Israel by donating free meals to Israeli troops.

LBC initially reported that the incident happened in Birmingham and was perpetrated by a yet-to-be-named individual who also shared a video on X, formerly Twitter, of him releasing the mice that were dyed in the colors of the Palestinian flag.

In the video, the suspect reportedly let the mice loose onto unsuspecting customers at the fast food joint. It was also revealed that the license plate in the person's vehicle spelled out "Palestine."

The man also yelled expletive versions of "Free Palestine" and "Boycott Israel."

"We are aware of an incident in our Birmingham Star City restaurant this evening where a number of mice were released by a member of the public," a McDonald's spokesperson told local reporters. "Following the removal of the mice, the restaurant has been fully sanitized and our pest control partners have been called out to conduct a full inspection."

Reactions to Mice Stunt: Not Loving It

However, the incident backfired as the video was received extremely negatively by the public, with the vast majority on social media disapproving of what the activist did.

"Throwing mice into a packed McDonald's in London while shouting Free Palestine, will not- in fact- free Palestine," Jewish man Hen Mazzig posted on X.

Another X user named Imam of Peace said that the "Hamas-loving rat purchased mice and threw them in McDonald's to free Palestine."

"The action of throwing mice into a restaurant where customers are eating is extremely sickening," National Jewish Assembly chair Gary Mond added. "It causes distress to both the people present and also the mice themselves, and is both a cruel and dangerous thing to do."
