Shocking photos show Manchester University's 137-year-old museum daubed with blood-red paint just opposite a pro-Palestine student camp.
The Manchester Museum, which dates back to 1887, was heavily vandalized across its frontage in the early hours of this morning.
Photos showed the university's distinctive Queen's Arch, designed by famed architect Alfred Waterhouse, defaced with spray paint.
No one has yet claimed responsibility for the damage, but Manchester University said it handed over CCTV footage to police who are now investigating the incident.
The Grade-II Listed building is just opposite a large encampment of pro-Palestine supporters at nearby Brunswick Park.
