Brigitte et Emmanuel Macron portent de nouveau plainte contre l’influenceuse Candace Owens
LE FIGARO : Le couple présidentiel accuse l’influenceuse américaine d’avoir continué à diffuser et à exploiter la fausse rumeur sur l’identité de Brigitte Macron.
Brigitte et Emmanuel Macron ont lancé la semaine dernière aux États-Unis de nouvelles poursuites en diffamation contre l'influenceuse Candace Owens, à qui ils reprochent d'avoir diffusé et exploité la fausse information selon laquelle l'épouse du président français serait une personne transgenre.
Cette action en justice menée par le couple présidentiel auprès d'un tribunal fédéral du Tennessee intervient après qu'un juge a restreint fin octobre la portée de leur précédente plainte, lancée à l'été 2025 dans le Delaware. Le magistrat a jugé que Candace Owens ne pouvait être tenue responsable à titre personnel car il y avait prescription, mais avait laissé la procédure se poursuivre à l'encontre de ses sociétés.

Trump's Midterm Disaster: Are Republicans Turning against Him? | DW News
Nov 10, 2026 | Donald Trump has suffered a crushing defeat in the US midterm elections. Democrats have won control of both houses of Congress, and Republicans are already questioning the president's leadership. But are Americans about to see a fundamental change in Washington?
The election has exposed divisions within both parties. Trump has acknowledged that his immigration crackdown may have gone too far, while appointing its architect, Stephen Miller, to lead his White House. Vice President JD Vance has blamed the Republican defeat on the war with Iran, putting him at odds with the president.
Meanwhile, Democrats are divided over what their victory means. Progressives and moderates are competing to define the party's future, while questions grow about the leadership of Chuck Schumer and the direction of the new Congress. On DW News' The Day, we speak to Bruce Stokes, visiting senior fellow at the German Marshall Fund and a long-time analyst of American public opinion.
We examine whether Trump is losing his grip on the Republican Party, whether Democrats can translate electoral success into meaningful change, and what the political upheaval means for US relations with Europe.
According to this gentleman being interviewed, there are people in America and even in the Republican Party that Trump will never forgive, even on his deathbed!
Well, I have news for Mr Trump! And it is this: There are many people who will never forgive Trump, his chumps, the MAGA movement, or the Americans who put this corrupt, incompetent narcissist in power to screw everything up, not only for America, but for the West as a whole and the rest of the world! Because of Trump et al, America, the West, and much of the rest of the world have been fouled up, maybe forever. Certainly, it is going to take many a decade to repair the untold damage Trump and his MAGA clowns have inflicted on us all. – © Mark Alexander

Saudi Arabia Sentences Mother to 100 Lashes for Birth Outside Marriage
THE NEW YORK TIMES: The kingdom’s promised reforms don’t always match the realities of its justice system. Unmarried women, particularly foreign workers, face unique perils.

A Saudi court has sentenced a domestic worker from Kenya to 100 lashes for giving birth outside marriage.
The ruling, issued last month, shows the limits of a decade of social and legal reforms in a kingdom where women can be jailed and punished for “illegal pregnancy.” The sentence is a harsh turn in what has been a terrifying ordeal for a mother who has tried for more than a year to return to Kenya with her child but has been blocked at every turn.
The mother, Esther Wanja Muthoni, is one of thousands of East African domestic workers who were recruited to work as housekeepers and nannies in Saudi Arabia. A New York Times investigation last year showed how Ms. Muthoni and others wind up trapped in a bureaucratic maze if they become pregnant.
Ms. Muthoni and her 1-year-old son, Abudy, are victims of an exploitative industry that recruits African women to Saudi Arabia in a labor pipeline from which top Kenyan government officials profit. Hundreds of Kenyan women have been killed, and reports of rapes and beatings are common.
For women who become pregnant, giving birth brings added punishment. The children of unwed mothers are routinely deprived of birth certificates in Saudi Arabia. Kenya’s diplomats, who could issue birth certificates and help mothers and children get home, instead frequently ignore them, insult them and solicit bribes or sex.
“I am so afraid,” Ms. Muthoni, 40, said in a phone interview last month. “I don’t think I can endure those lashes.” » | Abdi Latif Dahir and Vivian Nereim | Abdi Latif Dahir reported from Beirut, Lebanon, and Vivian Nereim from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. | Tuesday, November 10, 2026

Eva Braun: The Life of Hitler’s Secret Wife | Slice History | Full Documentary
Mar 30, 2024 | Eva Braun was Hitler's secret lover for more than 13 years. To this day, she is regarded as an apolitical and naïve appendage of the mass murderer. But who was the "bride of evil" really? Officially, Eva Braun was Hitler's private secretary at the Berghof. It was only after her death that she became a public figure in Germany. Together with Adolf Hitler, she took her own life in the bunker beneath the Reich Chancellery in Berlin on 30 April 1945. The dictator had previously married his long-time lover. Hidden from the national community, she spent most of her time in Munich or at Hitler's mountain farm in the Alps. The first academic biography by Heike B. Görtemaker aims to revise the image of the blonde and apolitical ditz at the dictator's side.

Why Even Defeated MAGA Is Still Dangerous | Steve Schmidt
Strong language alert!
What a despicable regime! What a bloody shower! Trump and those crazy MAGA devotees have turned a once enviable nation into what Trump would describe as a SHITHOUSE!
It is to be hoped that Americans will find it within themselves to rid America—and the world—of these deplorable people and the ‘scumbaggery’ they have foisted upon an unsuspecting and somewhat naïve nation.
As for Stephen Miller, well, what can one say? All he needs is an elegant, but intimidating SS uniform, to complete the picture and his terrifying image. — © Mark Alexander

Israël : Benyamin Netanyahou plaide pour former un gouvernement d'union sous sa direction sans en avoir reçu le mandat
LE FIGARO : Le premier ministre sortant Benyamin Netanyahou a de nouveau plaidé lundi pour un gouvernement d’union nationale sous sa direction, malgré la décision du président israélien de confier à son rival Gadi Eisenkot la mission de former une coalition.
Benyamin Netanyahou a réitéré lundi 9 novembre son appel à former un gouvernement d'union nationale sous sa direction malgré la décision du président israélien de confier à son rival Gadi Eisenkot la tâche de constituer une coalition après les élections législatives en Israël. « Il y a deux jours, j'ai appelé à la formation d'un gouvernement d'union nationale, et c'est là l'impératif du moment », a déclaré le premier ministre sortant dans une vidéo publiée sur Instagram.
Ce gouvernement devrait réunir les partis de son camp, notamment ultra-orthodoxes, ainsi que les autres formations sionistes, a-t-il précisé. « Et qui devrait diriger un tel gouvernement ? Naturellement, le parti qui devrait diriger ce gouvernement est le plus grand parti », a-t-il poursuivi, faisant valoir que sa formation, le Likoud, avait recueilli 250 000 voix de plus que son principal concurrent, le Yashar de Gadi Eisenkot. » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | lundi 9 novembre 2026
LGBTQ+ Ukrainians Fight Russia, but Still Face Discrimination at Home | DW News
What on earth is the matter with these benighted people? Christ had mothing to say about being homosexual, and politicians and military leaders shouldn’t have anything to say about it, either!
We have always known that Russians are benighted and extremely backward in this matter; but it is disappointing indeed to learn that Ukrainians are also often equally as backward and benighted. If you believe in God—and for many, I know, that’s a VERY BIG ASK—you should believe that we are all God’s children. That means to say that we have all been made in the image of God, the Father. So, if He made us gay, then what’s to argue about? I am gay. Why? Because I was born that way. I didn’t wake up one day and tell myself: Oh, the GAY LIFE sounds like a BLAST, so I think I’ll be gay from now on! How absurd would that be? Not at all! Growing up gay is difficult, and it is fraught with many obstacles and dangers. Even accepting one’s own sexuality can be very difficult for many, nay for most I would wager. It can be extremely difficult for many according to family circumstance, familial religious beliefs, and environment. And then when you grow up and have jumped through all those hoops, many gay people, people who are, in fact, only searching for love, acceptance and belonging, are faced with benighted, backward fossils who are hell-bent on denying them their human rights!
Come on Ukraine! Treat your LGBTQ+ community with dignity and respect. And as for those brave queer military folk — you are damn lucky that you have these courageous people to help fight for your independence and freedom. If Putin ever wins this war—Heaven forfend!—then the lights will go out for everyone in Ukraine, but more especially for the downtrodden Ukrainian gays. The way Russia treats its gay community is deplorable, but what can be expected from Putin? He’s a throwback from a bygone era.
But from the Ukraine, especially under Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s excellent and brave leadership, I expect better. By the way, if Ukrainians are serious about accession to the European Union, benightedness re gay rights is not an option. Guaranteeing queers rights is a must! So get cracking! — © Mark Alexander

Germans Miss Merkel, Their Old Chancellor, Though They Dislike Her Policies
THE NEW YORK TIMES: Crowds have flocked to the stern, but reassuring, face of Angela Merkel in her official portrait, even as a backlash to her legacy roils German politics.

The painting’s subject looks out of place on the museum wall, standing in a bright blue blazer, posing stiffly, her fingers perched tent-like on a table and her lined face unsmiling.
“I think she’s fantastic,” said a museum visitor, Heidi Brandt, gazing up at the painting of Angela Merkel.
Germans are experiencing a strange sort of nostalgia for Ms. Merkel, their former chancellor. At a time of political upheaval, polls show voters would rather see Ms. Merkel steering the country than the current chancellor, Friedrich Merz. Both are from the center-right Christian Democratic party.
After 16 years in power, Ms. Merkel left office in 2021 and her official portrait went on display in late summer at the Bode Museum in Berlin. Daily visits to the museum, which is usually not a top tourist draw, have risen by 80 percent since the exhibit opened. The rush was large enough to cause museum officials to extend the portrait’s stay by several months, through the end of the year.
Mr. Merz’s approval rating stands at 11 percent, said Peter Matuschek, who leads the German polling firm Forsa. Ms. Merkel left office with a rating near 75 percent, crossing party lines.
“People have an overall impression of her as a chancellor who seemed to hold the country together,” Mr. Matuschek said.
The affection persists even though Ms. Merkel’s policy legacy remains deeply unpopular — and widely blamed for many of Germany’s problems today. » | Aaron Wiener and Jim Tankersley | Reporting from Berlin | Monday, November 9, 2026

Top House Democrat 'A Hard Yes' on Impeaching Pete Hegseth | BBC News
Nov 9, 2026 | The top Democrat widely expected to be the next US House of Representatives Speaker has said he is "a hard yes" for impeaching Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth. New York congressman Hakeem Jeffries told ABC's programme This Week that Hegseth had "abused his power, undermined our national security, and engineered this reckless and costly war of choice in Iran".
Outgoing Republican congressman Thomas Massie, a foe of President Donald Trump, has said he plans as early as Monday to introduce a resolution to impeach Hegseth, which could result in his removal from office.
The Pentagon told the BBC it had followed the law and that Hegseth would not be deterred by "phony investigations". President Donald Trump defended Hegseth on Sunday and pushed back against Democrats' calls to impeach the Pentagon chief. "They want to impeach him. Very unfair," Trump told CBS News' 60 Minutes. "We had two wars, we won both. We won Venezuela, we won Iran."

Unfazed by Midterm Rebuke, Miller Is Poised to Push the Limits of Trump’s Power
Republicans called for President Trump to scale back the policies many blamed for their midterm blowout. Mr. Trump ruminated about deals with Democrats.
Stephen Miller was unfazed.
A day after the elections, as votes were still being counted and the Democrats’ victory margin seemed to increase by the hour, the longtime Trump aide and MAGA stalwart convened one of his regular calls with national security officials to get an update on immigration policy.
There was no talk of the results of the midterms or suggestion of scaling back the hard-line immigration approach that contributed to Republicans’ steep losses, according to people with knowledge of the call, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe a private discussion. Instead, Mr. Miller continued to push the officials to carry out an agenda that has in the past year included ramping up deportations, driving down border crossings and removing immigrants to faraway nations they were not from.
In other words, the architect of some of the administration’s most divisive policies demonstrated that he would aggressively pursue more of the agenda that many voters rejected on Tuesday.
Now, after being named Friday as White House chief of staff, Mr. Miller is poised to help oversee what is likely to be a combative final two years of Mr. Trump’s term. And as Democrats vow to investigate the very policies that Mr. Miller helped devise, Mr. Miller, the ultimate Trump loyalist, is in a prime position to continue his longtime pursuit of limiting checks on executive power.
If Mr. Miller’s predecessor, Susie Wiles, preferred to stay behind the scenes while trying to temper Mr. Miller’s brusque approach to issues like immigration, the president on Friday signaled that he was ready to more fully empower a hard-nosed lieutenant who had proved his loyalty and was happy to be a visible spokesman for the president and his agenda.
“He’s a great fighter,” Mr. Trump said on Friday after landing in Florida. “He’s been with me right from the beginning.” » | Zolan Kanno-Youngs and Hamed Aleaziz | Zolan Kanno-Youngs covers the White House, and Hamed Aleaziz covers the Department of Homeland Security.

Pope Leo Delivers Stinging Rebuke of Milei’s Austerity Measures during Argentina Visit

Pope Leo XIV has delivered a stinging critique of Argentine president Javier Milei’s harsh austerity measures, insisting growth must benefit all in a speech met with rapturous applause in Buenos Aires.
“The economy must be at the service of the people, rather than people being at the service of the economy,” he said on Sunday, shortly after landing in Argentina on the second leg of a Latin America tour.
Leo stressed the plight of those who, “despite hard work, nonetheless struggle to meet their household’s needs”.
He spoke out in defence of the poor and pensioners, insisting that “particular concern be shown for those affected by illness, dependency and disability” – a veiled reference to the government’s controversial cuts to disability assistance.
He also told Milei, known for his foul-mouthed diatribes, that strengthening democracy required a “willingness to listen” and the “careful use of words”. » | Agence France-Presse | Monday, November 9, 2026

UK Cannot "cherry Pick" Single Market Deal, Says Michel Barnier | BBC Sunday With Laura Kuenssberg
Nov 8, 2026 | The EU's former Brexit negotiator has warned that the UK cannot "cherry pick" which elements of the single market to which it subscribes, after Andy Burnham said he wanted to explore closer economic ties with Europe.
The prime minister has said re-joining the bloc's internal market was among options he could pursue as part of a re-shaping of ties since the UK's exit from the EU nearly six years ago. But Michel Barnier told the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg that EU members would insist on the UK re-adopting certain conditions, such as the free movement of people, to gain access. He said there was not a "single market à la carte" menu from which the UK could pick and choose which elements it wanted to adopt.
Barnier - who led the EU delegation during Brexit talks between 2016 and 2021 and had a three-month spell as French prime minister in 2024 - said the "door is open" within Europe to the UK re-joining as an EU member. But he insisted that any move to re-join the single market - which allows for goods to be freely traded without border controls - would require the UK to follow the same terms as other members.

Ex-MI6 Chief: Our 3 Biggest Global Threats
Nov 4, 2026 | Former MI6 Chief Sir Richard Dearlove joins Andy Coulson on Crisis What Crisis? to break down the growing geopolitical threats facing the UK and the West.
From Donald Trump's unpredictability and the immediate dangers of Russian grey warfare to China's long-term strategy for global dominance by 2049, Sir Richard warns that Britain is dangerously ill-prepared. He explains why national defence isn't just about military spending, but also about a strategic rebuilding of domestic manufacturing and breaking critical economic dependencies before it's too late.

États-Unis: Donald Trump reconnaît une politique d’expulsions des immigrés « trop dure » devant la presse
LE FIGARO : Le président américain s’est exprimé dans le cadre d’un entretien au média américain CBS. Il n’a en revanche pas donné de précisions sur un éventuel infléchissement de sa politique migratoire.
Donald Trump a reconnu dimanche, dans un entretien à la chaîne CBS, que sa politique d’expulsions massives d’immigrés avait été « trop dure », quelques jours après la débâcle de son camp lors des élections de mi-mandat. « Je pense qu’elle était trop dure », a répondu le président américain à un journaliste de CBS qui l’interrogeait sur sa politique en matière d’immigration, selon des extraits de l’entretien diffusés sur les réseaux sociaux. Il n’a cependant pas précisé s’il entendait modifier son approche en la matière. » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | dimanche 8 novembre 2026
Trump est dépourvu de cœur ! Il est dur comme la pierre. Il a compromis sa présidence en faisant preuve d’une telle dureté envers les plus faibles et les opprimés : il les fait arrêter dans la rue, parfois tuer, et bien souvent incarcérer dans ce que l’on ne peut qualifier que de camps de concentration. Il lui arrive même, au gré de ses caprices, de les envoyer vers des pays tiers — des pays avec lesquels ils n’entretiennent aucun lien et dont ils ignorent tout. Trump a détruit la réputation dont jouissait autrefois l’Amérique — une réputation fondée sur la bonté et l’humanitarisme — pour la remplacer par celle qui sied à un tyran !
Trump is heartless! He is as hard as stone. He has compromised his presidency by displaying such cruelty toward the most vulnerable and the oppressed—having them arrested on the streets, sometimes killed, and very often incarcerated in what can only be described as concentration camps. At times, driven by his own whims, he even sends them off to third-party countries—nations with which they have no connection and about which they know absolutely nothing. Trump has destroyed the reputation America once enjoyed—a reputation built on kindness and humanitarianism—replacing it with one befitting a tyrant!
Trump ist herzlos! Er ist hart wie Stein. Er hat seine Präsidentschaft diskreditiert, indem er eine solche Härte gegenüber den Schwächsten und Unterdrückten an den Tag legte: Er lässt sie auf der Straße verhaften, mitunter töten und sehr oft in Einrichtungen einsperren, die man nur als Konzentrationslager bezeichnen kann. Nach Lust und Laune schickt er sie sogar in Drittstaaten – Länder, zu denen sie keinerlei Bezug haben und über die sie absolut nichts wissen. Trump hat den Ruf zerstört, den Amerika einst genoss – einen Ruf, der auf Güte und Menschlichkeit gründete –, und ihn durch einen Ruf ersetzt, der einem Tyrannen gebührt! — © Mark Alexander

En Israël, Gadi Eisenkot chargé de former un gouvernement avec une majorité encore introuvable
LE FIGARO : DÉCRYPTAGE - Le dirigeant du parti Yashar dispose de 28 jours pour réunir une majorité. Mais les divisions de l’opposition sur les partis arabes et la conscription des ultraorthodoxes menacent de faire échouer les négociations et de maintenir Benyamin Netanyahou au pouvoir.
Gadi Eisenkot a désormais 28 jours pour trouver une coalition. Samedi, le président israélien, Isaac Herzog, a chargé l’ancien chef d’état-major de former un gouvernement. Avec le soutien de 67 députés sur 120, contre 46 à Benyamin Netanyahou, le chef de Yashar a gagné le droit d’essayer. Pas encore celui de gouverner. « Le moment est venu de mettre en place un gouvernement d’urgence nationale », a-t-il déclaré dans la foulée sur X.
La tâche s’annonce ardue, car les élections du 27 octobre dernier ont laissé une Knesset sans majorité. Les partis nationalistes et religieux traditionnellement alliés à Benyamin Netanyahou ont remporté 53 sièges, mais les sept élus de Judaïsme unifié de la Torah ont refusé de recommander le premier ministre sortant. Les quatre partis d’opposition rassemblés derrière Gadi Eisenkot totalisent 48 sièges. Les 19 autres sont revenus aux partis arabes, qui ont enregistré un résultat historique. La Liste unifiée de Yousef Jabareen (11 sièges) envisage de soutenir un gouvernement sans y participer. Raam, le parti de Mansour Abbas (8 sièges), n’exclut pas d’y entrer. Si les négociations échouent, Israël pourrait retourner aux urnes, et Benyamin Netanyahou resterait au pouvoir dans l’intervalle. » | Par Stanislas Poyet, correspondant à Jérusalem | dimanche 8 novembre 2926

The First Light of Dawn Is On the Horizon…
Hier kocht Alex: Der Eintopf der Hundertjährigen – so einfach kann gutes Essen sein!
Ein Gemüseeintopf, der ganz ohne Gemüsebrühe auskommt und trotzdem unglaublich aromatisch schmeckt! 🥔🎃 Das Geheimnis sind gutes Gemüse, ein wenig Geduld und ein warmes Knoblauch-Kapern-Öl, das dem Ganzen am Ende noch mal richtig Geschmack gibt.
Die Inspiration stammt von der griechischen Insel Ikaria. Dort gehört Soufiko zur traditionellen Küche – ein einfaches Gericht aus saisonalem Gemüse, das langsam im eigenen Saft schmort.
Ich habe daraus meine ganz persönliche Herbstvariante gemacht: mit Kürbis, Kartoffeln, Bohnen und Spitzkohl. Ein richtig schönes, ehrliches Essen, für das man weder außergewöhnliche Zutaten noch jede Menge Gewürze braucht.
Und es geht noch ein kleines Stück weiter nach Griechenland. Ich erzähle euch von meinem Besuch auf einem Olivenhain in den Bergen Kretas, von den Menschen dahinter und davon, warum gutes Olivenöl für mich etwas ganz Besonderes ist.

In Argentina, Pope Leo to Meet Church at Odds With President Milei
THE NEW YORK TIMES: The pontiff’s trip comes amid tensions between the country’s libertarian leader and its Catholic Church, which is deeply committed to social justice.
The Catholic priests were reciting the Lord’s Prayer during an anti-government protest when clashes broke out with the police. As one cleric tried to reach a fellow priest dragged behind the armored police cordon, an officer in riot gear grabbed his white tunic.
“This government is heartless,” the priest, Jorge Romero, said in a later interview. “We have to fight,” said the other, Francisco Olveira, known as Paco.
The clash last May between the police and activist clergymen outside Argentina’s Congress in Buenos Aires was a violent flashpoint in prolonged tensions between President Javier Milei and much of the country’s Roman Catholic Church.
Pope Leo’s visit to Argentina, which begins on Sunday, will place him at the center of that uneasy standoff with Mr. Milei, a libertarian who has repeatedly attacked concepts of social justice that much of Argentina’s clergy is deeply committed to.
Few expect the pontiff, who is set to meet with Mr. Milei on Sunday afternoon, to wade openly into the debate. Pope Leo’s predecessor, Francis, never returned to Argentina, his home country, a decision many saw as an attempt to avoid being dragged into “la grieta” — the nation’s famously bitter political divide.
Pope Leo, an American who has shown a less flamboyant personality than Francis, does not have the same national baggage. But still, Mr. Milei has diametrically opposed views on issues like artificial intelligence, and he often describes his presidency as a moral mission — putting him in territory traditionally claimed by the church. » | Emma Bubola | Photographs by Sarah Pabst | Reporting from Buenos Aires | Sunday, November 8, 2026
I have no time for Javier Milei. He’s a heartless, cruel S**! He’ll never go down in history as a great leader because he is more concerned with statistics than he is with Argentinians’ well-being and welfare. He hasn’t got a compassionate bone in his body! He is bereft of all mercy. The mere fact that he is big chums with the Orange One in the White House tells me all I need to know about him. May God have mercy on Argentina and the Argentinians. — © Mark Alexander
Tourismusbehörde lädt Singles ein: Auf der Suche nach der Liebe? Dann ab nach Finnland!
Ein typischer finnischer Witz geht ungefähr so: Zur Silberhochzeit meckert die Ehefrau, dass ihr Mann ihr zuletzt am Tag der Eheschließung gesagt habe, dass er sie liebe. Der Mann versteht die Welt nicht mehr: „Solange sich daran nichts ändert, warum soll ich es dann wiederholen?“
Schweigen ist in Finnland eine Form des Anstands, zu viel Gequatsche und Small Talk gelten als aufdringlich.
Für die romantische Paarbeziehung ist das nicht immer einfach. Dem finnischen Statistikamt zufolge lebten Ende 2024 mehr als 1,3 Millionen Menschen im nordischen Land allein, 8400 mehr als im Jahr zuvor. Fast jeder zweite Haushalt in Finnland wird nur von einer Person bewohnt. » | Von Maxi Beigang | Sonntag, 8. November 2026

Kraków Shooting Leaves Six Dead, Including British Citizen | BBC News
Nov 8, 2026 | An attack in Kraków’s Main Market Square on Saturday has left six people dead. Police said a 25-year-old man drove into the square "before beginning to fire at random people from his car".
Poland's Interior Minister Marcin Kierwiński said the suspect is a Polish national. He added that it looks like he held "very radical views" and that everything indicates he was inspired by "far-right ideologies".
One of the six people killed in the attack has been identified as a British national. The head of Poland's police force, Marek Boroń, says 16 more people were injured, including two police officers, five foreign nationals and the suspect.
Kraków is also holding two days of mourning, with businesses in the city closed today after the attack.

Arabie saoudite : le quartier financier de Riyad frappé, le bâtiment d’Aramco endommagé
LE FIGARO : La coalition dirigée par l’Arabie saoudite a dit avoir intercepté des missiles lancés par les Houthis du Yémen.
Plusieurs témoins ont indiqué à l’AFP que le quartier financier de Riyad avait été touché dimanche et un bâtiment du géant Aramco endommagé, après que la coalition dirigée par l’Arabie saoudite a dit avoir intercepté des missiles lancés par les Houthis du Yémen. La capitale saoudienne, notamment son aéroport, est régulièrement visée depuis octobre par des tirs des combattants pro-iraniens qui se battent contre le gouvernement yéménite, soutenu par la coalition.
Mais prendre pour cible ce quartier symbolique pourrait constituer une importante escalade dans le conflit opposant le royaume aux Houthis, qui avaient accusé les forces saoudiennes de deux attaques meurtrières visant des civils vendredi et samedi au Yémen. « La tour Aramco à KAFD a été prise pour cible, c’est sûr », a affirmé un des témoins, faisant référence au quartier financier du roi Abdallah. Deux autres témoins ont affirmé avoir observé des dommages sur le bâtiment. » | Par Le Figaro avec AFP | dimanche 8 novembre 2026
