## Resource

Ancient standing stones near Monymusk in Aberdeenshire—known locally as “The Druids” and dating back to the 3rd century BCE—were deliberately damaged and two trees set ablaze in a shocking act of vandalism on May 15th. Police have charged a 15-year-old with the crimes, which they describe as wilful arson and damage to historic heritage. The incident has sparked outrage over the disrespect shown to centuries-old monuments, and authorities hope the case serves as a warning.
