On the front page of the press, the kidnapping of French journalist Olivier Dubois, in Mali, by a jihadist group affiliated with Al-Qaeda.

Sahel

In a short video published yesterday, the reporter says he was kidnapped by the Support Group for Islam and Muslims, and calls on the French authorities to do "everything in their power to release him". "Olivier Dubois, hostage journalist," announces

Liberation

, who had no news from his correspondent since his disappearance on April 8.

“Should the press be wary of the Sahel?”:

Le Djély, 

a Guinean news site, expresses its “serious concerns” about the fate of Olivier Dubois, recalling “the tragic outcomes” of the kidnapping, in 2013, Ghislaine Dupont and Claude Verlon, our colleagues from RFI, and more recently, two Spanish journalists, attacked in eastern Burkina Faso.

For the Guinean news site "give in to the ambient fear", "abdicate", "is not a solution", and it is the "duty of the Sahel States (as) of the international community to guarantee the security of all, and (the duty) of journalists, to continue to inform the world "about what is happening in the Sahel.

Feminicide

She too lived in fear.

Chahinez, 31, mother of three, died Tuesday near Bordeaux, in southwestern France, burned alive by her violent husband.

This new feminicide causes a lot of emotion and anger, associations fighting against domestic violence pointing in this case "the failures of justice", which failed to prevent the husband of Chahinez, already sentenced in 2020 for " voluntary violence "in recurrence, to take action again.

According to

Sud-Ouest

, Chahinez did not have a "serious danger telephone".

and her husband had not been assigned an anti-reconciliation bracelet.

Scotland

Also on the front page, the legislative elections, today, in Scotland, which could be won by the separatists. If the Scottish National Party gets an absolute majority in the Scottish Parliament, a new UK exit referendum will be more than likely. The stake is thus considerable and

The Scottish Daily Mail

even evokes "the day of the Last Judgment". "Your vote has never been so vital. Today, you can sanction the SNP and prevent its boss, Nicola Sturgeon, from snatching us from the United Kingdom", pleads the conservative daily, opposed, as we will have understood, any idea of ​​a new referendum, just like the Scottish version of the

Sun

, which asks voters not to "give carte blanche" to Nicola Sturgeon, as it would be "bad for the health of Scotland", bad for "the post-Covid recovery" in Scotland.

The National

, a Scottish newspaper committed to the independence cause, relays, purely and simply, the SNP's invitation to "vote in favor of independence", recalling, however, that Nicola Sturgeon, let it be known that she did not plan to propose a referendum immediately, preferring to prioritize the fight against the epidemic due to the coronavirus first.

Peach

The project of a second referendum, to which Boris Johnson is totally opposed. The British Prime Minister is not only up against the Scottish separatists, he is also very much against the European fishermen, whose access to British waters continues to cause a stir between London and Brussels, since Brexit. Latest episode to date: the threat from Paris to cut the current on the Anglo-Norman island of Jersey, to protest against the conditions imposed on French sailors - to which Boris Johnson responded by dispatching two Royal Navy boats to the area. , according to

The Times

. The spirits are heating up.

The Daily Mail

evokes "a dangerous escalation in the face-to-face with the French fishermen", deeming it necessary to specify that the HMS Severn, one of the ships sent on site, is equipped with 20mm cannons ...

Kiss

We do not leave each other on this.

In the quarrel column, always, although in a less dramatic register, the

Huffington Post

reports a controversy that has agitated the United States for several days, around a new attraction of Disneyland, representing the kiss of Prince Charming to Snow White. "A kiss he gives her without her consent, while she sleeps, it cannot be true love unless the person knows what is going on," reacted American feminists. These may have got a little excited, because Snow White may not be the white dove we think - to do with the drawing of Coco, published by Liberation. “I… I… can I kiss you?” Prince Charming asks shyly. "What a jerk, I slept with the 7 dwarfs, I'll call you back," replied his sweetheart.
