France

A priceless tapestry, valued at £800 million, has captured the attention of the Treasury. This extraordinary piece not only represents immense artistic heritage but also highlights the importance of preserving cultural artifacts in an era of economic scrutiny.

The unrest began last week following a decision by lawmakers in Paris to permit more French residents to vote in local elections, a change that indigenous leaders claim will diminish the political influence of native people.

Rouen Mayor Nicolas Mayer-Rossignol said that the attack has left not just the Jewish community but the entire city “battered and in shock.” Police were alerted around 06:45 local time (04:45 GMT) after smoke was seen rising from the synagogue.
