Stonehenge Solstice Marred by Climate Protests and Vandalism
Over 15,000 visitors witnessed the summer solstice sunrise at Stonehenge, where the sun appeared above the Heel Stone. The event followed a climate change protest by Just Stop Oil activists who sprayed the site with orange paint, which was later removed. The solstice marks the beginning of astronomical summer in the Northern Hemisphere and features several notable celestial events.
