Feminist Ukrainian protest group FEMEN have struck again: going topless near mosques and Tunisian embassies across Europe on Thursday to express support for embattled FEMEN activist Amina Tyle.

We’re free, we’re naked, it’s our right, it’s our body, it’s our rules, and nobody can use religion, and some other holy things, to abuse women, to oppress them’, FEMEN member Alexandra Shevchenko said in Berlin, according to AFP

Controversy sparked in mid-March when a Tunisian student Amina Tyler posted topless photos of herself on Facebook, with the slogans ‘Fuck Your Morals’ and ‘My Body Belongs To Me, And Is Not The Source Of Anyone’s Honor,’ painted on her body..

Islamist hackers were reported to have responded with an attack on FEMEN’s Tunisian Facebook Fan Page, replacing topless photos with quotes from the Quran. An Islamic preacher even stated that Tyler could be stoned for her act of defiance.

In her support, FEMEN have labelled April 4 the ‘International Topless Jihad Day’ and organized protests across Europe. Some of the protesters were arrested by local authority.

‘Our tits are deadlier than your stones!’ the group wrote in a statement on its Facebook page
