French basketball players beaten in their first match at the Olympics

It is the disappointment.

French basketball players start the Olympic Games with a bad result.

Too inconsistent and dominated in aggressiveness, the Blue, finalist of the last Euro, were beaten on Tuesday by a catchy team from Japan (74-70).

This day, on the other hand, smiled on French women in combat sports.

In judo, Clarisse Agbegnenou only needed twenty seconds to qualify for the quarters.

Althéa Laurin, 19, also qualified for the quarterfinals but this time in taekwondo.

On the Basque coast and in the Hérault, the mask is once again compulsory

The mask continues to come back all over France.

This time, it is the turn of the Basque coast and the Hérault to resume the path of a toughening of measures to fight against the spread of the coronavirus.

In a context of deteriorating health situation in these two tourist areas, wearing a mask outdoors is once again compulsory.

On the Basque coast, the prefecture of Pyrénées-Atlantiques took this measure at least until August 31.

In the Hérault, the mask is again in order until August 15 with the exception of six sparsely populated municipalities and beaches.

US Congress opens investigation into attack on Capitol Hill

The United States continues to question the crisis of the last presidential election.

More than six months after the assault on the Capitol in Washington, a parliamentary committee began an investigation on Tuesday into this event, in a deleterious climate that risks compromising its work.

Police officers will be the first to be questioned by a group of elected House of Representatives tasked with bringing out “the truth” about the January 6 attack.

Problem: after a political showdown, this commission only has detractors of former President Donald Trump, which "does not bode well for a serious investigation" and destroys its "credibility", according to the leader of the Republicans at the Kevin McCarthy Room.
