After storm Alex, Macron is visiting the Alpes-Maritimes this Wednesday

In order to see the damage left in the passage of storm Alex, Emmanuel Macron is going to the Nice region this Wednesday.

The president travels "to observe and affirm the very strong mobilization of the State which has mobilized from the start", explained Prime Minister Jean Castex during questions to the government at the National Assembly.

In addition, "the Council of Ministers will declare [this Wednesday] in the territories concerned the state of natural disaster", he added.

Nordahl Lelandais under the status of assisted witness for the rape of Maëlys

Nordahl Lelandais was placed Tuesday evening under the status of witness assisted by the investigating judges, at the end of his hearing at the Grenoble courthouse in the investigation into the possible rape of Maëlys De Araujo.

He thus escapes indictment in this part of the case, yet desired by the prosecution.

The status of assisted witness is legally placed between that of witness and that of indictment.

Facebook and Instagram remove accounts linked to QAnon conspiracy

Social networks have decided to act.

Facebook announced Tuesday the withdrawal of all accounts, pages and groups linked to the conspiratorial movement "QAnon", on its main platform and on Instagram, while the number of followers of this far-right pro-Trump movement has exploded in the run-up to the US presidential election.

Facebook, regularly accused by civil society of not sufficiently fighting against actors propagating hatred, had already cracked down on QAnon on several occasions.

This time, even the pages which “do not contain violent content” will be deleted if they are associated with the movement, the Californian group said.
