Indian-origin man among 2 arrested for spraying Stonehenge orange

The Just Stop Oil protest group said two activists had "decorated Stonehenge in orange powder paint" to demand that Britain's next government legally commit to phasing out fossil fuels by 2030.

UK police arrested two people on Wednesday after environmental activists sprayed an orange substance on Stonehenge, the renowned prehistoric UNESCO world heritage site in southwest England.

The Just Stop Oil protest group said two activists had "decorated Stonehenge in orange powder paint" to demand that Britain's next government legally commit to phasing out fossil fuels by 2030.

Footage posted on social media showed activists, wearing "Just Stop Oil" branded T-shirts, spraying a cluster of the megalithic standing stones with the orange substance from a small canister.
