France riots latest as tensions begin to ease – BBC News

Published

on



Tension across France has eased after nearly a week of riots and looting due to a police officer’s fatal shooting of a teenager.

Nahel M, 17, was shot after police say he failed to comply with an order to stop his car in Nanterre near Paris.

The grandmother of the teen said her heart was “in pain” after a GoFundMe page was launched for the family of the police officer who shot Nahel. It has so far raised more than €1.1m (£956,200).

Meanwhile, French regional authorities are starting to announce financial support measures for looted businesses and hospitality venues amid fears the disruption will have an impact on the country’s tourism industry.

Millions of euros worth of damage to public transport and infrastructure has reportedly been caused across the country.

    I was raised as a Progressive / lefty but I'm conservative now. There's no reason to allow immigration into Europe. It makes ZERO sense. Especially when you know they are not gonna comply. I'm astonished that they don't just start deporting everyone. It's baffeling.

    BBC pls report this appropriately as a Muslim immigration issue. There are many immigrants in UK. Hindus, Polish and infact all others never ever do this. If you report this as what immigrants do you are incorrectly reporting it.

    This shit looks like Gotham city rioting of Banes men. This is far more scarier than cartoonist killing. Now whole city looks inspired by ISIS. I am sure AL Jazeera and BBC are making sure Arab spring happens in Europe this time starting with France. There are far more dangerous ISIS goons in UK, imagine this spreading to UK. Being imprisoned by violent minority….due to colonial guilt!

    The kid who was shot, tried to run over two police officers. They had the right to open fire. There is nothing unjust of a dangerous criminal getting shot after endangering the very people set to protect the rule of law. Greetings from Copenhagen Denmark 🇩🇰

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
