France travel disruption to last all weekend after arson attacks | BBC News

Hours before the opening ceremony for the Paris Olympics, coordinated arson attacks on three lines of the high-speed TGV network on Friday caused chaos for travellers.

French rail company SNCF has warned that disruption from Friday's sabotage against the country's train network could last until the end of the weekend.

In a statement issued on Friday evening, SNCF said traffic "would improve" on affected lines on Saturday thanks to the work of thousands of rail workers.

Those responsible were surely 'doctors and engineers' from a diverse background of course.
I hope France people feel enriched with this cultural practice lol.

France has been so peaceful recently. This is so out the blue.

So not even 75, 000 soldiers and police from 44 different countries could protect public transport, great.

My travel plans were disrupted but I consider it an act of God that I didn’t endure the awful drag show and blasphemous recreation of the Last Supper. I won’t be watching the games because of it.

This is too suspicious. Transport to Paris not being monitored just prior to the Olympics, is insane.

[Uouttooo]

So no arrest even for the older incidents? WoW!

Wouldn't be surprised if it is someone Parisien. I have heard that the local Parisians are NOT fans of the Olympics being held there.
