A third McDonald's restaurant in Birmingham has been hit by a mice attack as a masked gang stormed yet another eatery in protest against the chain's supposed support for Israel.
Footage circulated on social media showing a group of men entering Small Heath's McDonald's last night.
The masked mob chanted "Free Palestine" and waved the Palestinian flag.
A box containing white mice was then lobbed towards staff at the service counter.

The incident comes after staff were left scrambling to try to contain rodents after a separate pro-Palestine protest left customers horrified.
The mice were being trapped under a large tuppaware container to prevent a further spread.
McDonald's confirmed an incident took place at its Star City eatery earlier this week.

Mice, painted the colour of the Palestinian flag, were let loose as the restaurant was forced to conduct a thorough clean after dealing with the problem.
A spokesperson said: "We are aware of an incident in our Birmingham Star City restaurant this evening.
"The restaurant has been fully sanitised and our pest control partners have been called out to conduct a full inspection."
West Midlands Police added: "We understand the distress this will have caused and it's not acceptable in any circumstances.LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:

"This is currently being treated as a public nuisance offence and we've active lines on enquiries to identify, and then arrest, who was involved."
The man who originally posted the footage from the Star City chain, 32-year-old convicted fraudster Aamir Khan, denied responsibility and claimed the footage was sent to him anonymously.
“Since the outbreak of the war, McDonald's Israel has donated over one hundred thousand meals to the security forces, the residents of the surrounding area and the hospitals, when five of the chain's restaurants were opened for this purpose only," McDonald's Israel said.

“In addition, McDonald's Israel gives a 50 per cent percent discount to all security and rescue forces that arrive independently at the branches.”
However, a rift emerged between the fast food chain’s international franchises after spokespeople in Kuwait and Pakistan issued statements confirming they did not share ownership with the Israeli group.
Some franchises even noted that they had made financial donations to Palestinians living in Gaza.
A separate protest in Bristol saw pro-Palestine demonstrators urge customers to boycott McDonald's.
