  • The 1971 Scottish soldiers' killings took place in Northern Ireland during The Troubles. On 10 March 1971, the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) shot dead three off-duty British soldiers of the 1st Battalion, Royal Highland Fusiliers. The soldiers were from Scotland and two were teenage brothers. They were lured from a pub in Belfast where they had been drinking, driven to a remote location and shot by the roadside. Three British soldiers had been killed before this, but all had been killed during rioting. The deaths led to public mourning and protests against the IRA. Pressure to act spurred a political crisis for the Northern Ireland Government, which led to the resignation of James Chichester-Clark as Prime Minister of Northern Ireland. The British Army raised the minimum age needed to serve in Northern Ireland to 18 in response to this incident. In 2010, a memorial was dedicated to the three soldiers near the site of their deaths. Three IRA members were later named as being responsible, one of whom was a former British soldier. (en)
  • Le uccisioni dei soldati scozzesi del 1971, furono tre omicidi di soldati scozzesi perpetrati dalla Provisional IRA. L'incidente è avvenuto a Squire's Hill, a nord di Belfast, dopo che tre membri del primo battaglione dei John McCaig, Dougald McCaughey e Joseph McCaig sono stati rapiti in un bar nella capitale nordirlandese e portati in un luogo remoto. Due dei tre soldati erano fratelli adolescenti; e tutti e tre provenivano dalla Scozia. Sono stati uccisi mentre erano fuori servizio e in abiti civili. Le morti hanno scatenato il lutto pubblico e le proteste contro l'IRA, e la pressione ad agire ha fatto precipitare una crisi politica nel governo dell'Irlanda del Nord, comprese le dimissioni di James Chichester-Clark da Primo ministro dell'Irlanda del Nord. L'esercito britannico ha aumentato l'età minima richiesta per prestare servizio in Irlanda del Nord a 18 in risposta a questo incidente. Nel 2010, un memoriale è stato dedicato ai tre soldati vicino a dove sono stati uccisi a North Belfast. (it)
  • Убийство трёх шотландских солдат (англ. Scottish soldiers' killings) — событие, произошедшее в Северной Ирландии 10 марта 1971, в разгар вооружённого конфликта. Боевики Временной ИРА расстреляли трёх невооружённых солдат 1-го батальона полка Королевских горных фузилёров. Все трое были выходцами из Шотландии, двое из них были родными братьями. Все они погибли во время отдыха от службы: они возвращались из бара в центре Белфаста. Трупы их были обнаружены около дороги. Гибель солдат стала поводом к публичному осуждению и протестам против деятельности ИРА. Давление общества вылилось в политический кризис для Исполнительного комитета при Тайном Совете Северной Ирландии, что вынудило премьер-министра Северной Ирландии Джеймса Чичестера-Кларка уйти в отставку. Минимальный призывной возраст для Британской армии был поднят до 18 лет после случившегося. На месте гибели солдат в 2010 году был открыт мемориал. (ru)
