Prince Harry says memoirs written to combat 'spin and distortion'

14 Sept 10:32 Key points summarised by AI

Prince Harry released his memoir "Spare" to counter years of "spin and distortion" from the media and reclaim his personal narrative.
The book contains explosive revelations, including a physical altercation with Prince William, admissions of drug use, and his claim of killing 25 people during military service in Afghanistan.
Harry accused the British media of being "the antagonist" and alleged that other royal family members were "complicit" in leaking hostile stories against him and Meghan.
Despite the fallout from the book's contents, Harry expressed a desire for reconciliation with his father, King Charles III, and brother, Prince William, hoping they would read his account.

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.
