the IOC together with the french olympic committee need to guarantee safety within the olympic bubble
which is the stadiums, olympic village, and the seine
everything outside of that falls under the responsibility of france's government

"Jean-Pierre Faranadou, head national rail operator SNCF, said: “Today, it’s the
major (holiday) departures that are under attack...it’s the French who are
under attack” as he called the plans of thousands to visit the Games “ruined”.
The sabotage followed warnings that foreign countries whose athletes have
been barred from the opening ceremony, notably Russia, would seek to disrupt
the Games. "

I am genuinely terrified of what could happen: I just hope that intelligence from all over the world can try and prevent anything too horrific from happening.
france has always been on the edge between calm and violent protest, thats why there is so much security in Paris, but it's a big country and impossible to fully protect

Someone has planted bombs
on the French side of rail.
Near to the cables.
Good job the French Police
found them.
The Track is not damaged
it is all easy damage done to the cables
Optic Cables were easy to cut.
The young French PM
claims he will catch them?
It is feared some will miss the early start at 6:30PM

What are these idiots/monsters hoping to achieve
It sounds like madness to be tampering with super fast trains with hundreds of passengers !!
I would apply an instant death sentence to anyone putting the lives of innocents at risk

They are Cutting Fiber optic cables
along the side of a Fast Train Railway
It can take 3 days to fix.
PM Starmer was meant to flow in by fast train.
He has now taken a Flight to Paris.
2 Fast Trains full of Athletes were stopped
Whichever group is Anti the French Leader
they have won.

BBC News Text:
[On the front of the Daily Telegraph,
flagbearers Daley and Glover recreate
the famous scene from
the Titanic on Team GB's barge along the Seine.
The broadsheet reports hard-left agitators are suspected
of carrying out the attack,
as well as suspicion falling on Russia.
It writes that Prime Minister Keir Starmer
was also affected - he flew to
France instead of catching the
Eurostar as planned because
of the disruption.
The paper's chief sport writer describes the
opening ceremony as "miraculous"
despite it ridding itself of a stadium
and being staged on a river.]
