Amber Heard testifies she was assaulted by Johnny Depp
13 Sept 09:57Key points summarised by AI
Amber Heard testified in Johnny Depp's libel lawsuit, detailing multiple alleged physical and sexual assaults by Depp.
She recounted the first alleged assault in 2013, claiming Depp slapped her repeatedly after she laughed at his 'Wino' tattoo.
Heard described a disturbing 2013 incident where Depp allegedly performed a 'cavity search' during a drug-fueled jealous rage.
She explained her reasons for staying in the relationship, citing intense love during good times contrasted with Depp's violent episodes, often linked to jealousy and substance abuse.
Johnny Depp denies all of Heard's allegations, having previously presented his testimony in the ongoing trial.
Macron condemns those who 'sought to bring down the Republic' after rioting mars nationwide protests
Yesterday 12:56Key points summarised by AI
President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
