The prehistoric megalithic structure in England has been targeted by activists spraying orange powder paint, social media footage showed.

Environmental protesters sprayed paint on Stonehenge on Wednesday, with footage showing an orange powder covering some of the stones.

Two protesters dressed in white were seen running towards two of the megaliths, spraying paint, as another person attempted to stop them, in footage released by Just Stop Oil, an environmental activist group focused on the issue of human-caused climate change.

    Bullshit. It’s an archeological site. The now faded ancient paintings risks being ruined as a result of this idiocy.

      If dyed cornstarch could destroy anything on the stonehenge then it already would have been. You know it’s outside, right?

        Paint and ‘being outside’ are two very different things.

        You slow or something?

          Are you? Something just left outside for a long ass time will take more damage than even a spray of lead paint can do. And this is just corn starch, not even paint.
