French school ransacked as nationwide student protests continue

A secondary outside Bordeaux was ransacked on Thursday (October 8). The vandals stole and broke equipment and lit a fire in a storage cupboard, leading to several hundred thousand euros worth of damage.

The incident comes as protests have erupted across France over an unequal, underfunded school system, overloaded timetables and extensive teacher absences.

"It is still far too early to tell you what kind of profile the individuals who acted in this way had," Public Prosecutor of Bordeaux Renaud Gaude told press.

Polish police grapple student violence

Police in Poland have arrested multiple teens for making threats to school attacks, the force said on Friday (October 9).

Rumours are circulating of an online challenge that could be behind two stabbing sprees in the past week and may reach its climax on Friday, but police say they have so far found no evidence of a link.

Digital Affairs Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski says concerns circulating online appear to be fuelled by misinformation rather than evidence of a broader trend.

Police have arrested 10 people, mainly for making threats online, including a 13-year-old who posted a photo of a knife in a class group chat.

On Thursday (October 8), a 15-year-old former pupil wearing a helmet-mounted camera killed one employee and injured two others at a Polish primary school. On Wednesday, a 19-year-old wounded 10 at another school in Ostroleka, northeastern Poland.

Firing squad execution to be livestream, Hegseth confirms

The execution by firing squad of convicted military base shooter Nidal Hasan will be livestreamed, a Pentagon official said Thursday, after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said it would be carried out in "public."

Hasan, a US Army psychiatrist, shot dead 13 people at Fort Hood in 2009 in an al-Qaeda inspired attack. Twelve of those he killed and 30 of the wounded were soldiers. Hasan was shot and partially paralyzed by a civilian police officer who responded to the attack.

Sentenced to death by a military jury in 2013, his execution will be the first by the US military since 1961, and the first it has carried out by firing squad since World War II. The last US military execution was carried out in 1961, when John Bennett was hanged for rape and attempted murder.

A former US Army sergeant who survived the mass shooting on Fort Hood has said that while he supports the execution of the gunman by firing squad, he is concerned about it being livestreamed.

A 15-year-old former pupil killed a school caretaker and injured two others at a primary school in northeastern Poland on Thursday, police said.

The attack happened in Leszczydol-Nowiny, northeast of Warsaw, at around 0700 GMT. The school principal and a teacher were injured while attempting to restrain the attacker. Their injuries were not life-threatening.

The motive was not immediately clear. The suspect was detained, according to authorities.

The attack came a day after a 19-year-old wounded 10 people, including himself, in a knife attack at a school in Ostroleka.

Polish Interior Minister Marcin Kierwinski also said police detained a 17-year-old in Sierpc after the teenager allegedly spoke about plans to do “something dangerous” at a school. Police said the teenager was carrying two knives.

Israel closes British consulate in Jerusalem over West Bank sanctions

Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar announced on Thursday (October 8) that the British consulate in Jerusalem is "ceasing operations". 

Israel ordered the closure of the consulate in September, after the British government led Western sanctions over violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. 

Seven British diplomats have been allowed to remain in Israel. The UK says they will continue to offer "vital services" and forward their "work with the Palestinian people".

French finance minister Roland Lescure has given perhaps the biggest indication that France would welcome the UK's potential future re-entry to the EU. 

Last week UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham indicated that a second Brexit referendum was "possible" in the next Labour election manifesto. 


Lescure said: "British people decided, and that's obviously their 100% right, and if they're willing to come back, they will have to decide. But what I can tell them is: come back, anytime."

Veterans of 1968 French student protests back on the streets

A couple who participated in the May 1968 protests that brought France to a standstill joined demonstrators marching through Marseille on Tuesday (October 6) demanding better conditions for education.


Students, teachers and parents marched in cites across France in the biggest day of action in a wave of demonstrations demanding the government tackle understaffed and dilapidated classrooms.


The May 1968 protests were a series of student demonstrations and a general strike that nearly toppled President Charles de Gaulle's government. The student revolts spread to factories across France, with strikes by 7 million workers looking for higher pay paralysing a highly industrialised economy that was booming.
