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.

      Nothing there indicates that the archeologists are actually worried, just that they haven’t assessed it yet.

        He says that the paintings are sensitive to damage, it’s in the quote, now stop wasting my time.
