SoldierofLove Posted July 26 Posted July 26 Saboteurs struck France's TGV high-speed train network in a series of pre-dawn attacks across the country, causing travel chaos and exposing security gaps ahead of the Paris Olympics opening ceremony later on Friday. The TGV high-speed rail attacks left hundreds of thousands of people stranded at stations. Eurostar's high-speed services linking London and Paris were forced onto slower lines while Germany's Deutsche Bahn warned of disruption to long-distance services. The SNCF urged all travelers to postpone their journeys. Repairs were underway but traffic would be severely disrupted until at least the end of the weekend. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/vandals-target-frances-high-speed-rail-network-olympics-get-underway-2024-07-26/ Well damn.

Bosque Posted July 26 Posted July 26 (edited) Most likely extremist leftists, they recently carried out a very similar attack on the train system in Germany, on the Tesla factory there, etc. Plus, pissing of hundreds of thousands of people just minding their own business at once is their MO. What they are hoping to achieve by shutting down the most environmentally friendly method of mass transport however is a harder question to answer Edited July 26 by Bosque 1 1 2 9

Apologies accepted I love when people are so, so wrong, despite being so, so loud Quote Far-left extremists were likely behind last week's arson attacks on France's high-speed train network, heavily disrupting travel just hours before the Olympic Games opening ceremony, French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin said Monday. Authorities in France are leaning toward the likelihood that far-left activists were responsible for a sabotage of the country's long-distance rail network on Friday. Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said on Monday that the saboteurs' methods bore the hallmarks of far-left extremists. "We have identified the profiles of several people," Darmanin told France 2 TV . "This is the traditional type of action of the ultra left," he added. Darmanin also confirmed that authorities arrested 45 members of the Extinction Rebellion direct action environmental group. https://www.dw.com/en/french-minister-says-rail-sabotage-has-hallmarks-of-far-left/a-69794459 1

Or is it like Just Stop Oil where they just pull stunts that no one really agrees with 1
