Adolf Putin's Russia are behind this most likely :idc:

France really is a problem nation right now, I fear that this Olympics is going to be total chaos

no, you have maximum security at the Olympics honestly


what happens outside of that bubble, well that's not the IOC's problem

No but it is France's problem

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

The arson attack is worse that at first feared and is also affecting Eurostar services

"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

Yes Burning Optic Cables
the trains need


This is Terrorism

After weeks of the Euros followed by bloody Wimbledon, maybe it's someone who just can't stand the thought of weeks and weeks of saturation sports coverage?

there is talk that russia are behind the attacks, and it really wouldn't surprise me

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



Top Reporter Mark White update.

Jesus it hasn’t even started yet.

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

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.
