23 Sept 03:33 Key points summarised by AI

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky made a surprise visit to the G7 summit in Hiroshima to secure crucial diplomatic and military support against Russia's ongoing invasion, refocusing global attention on Ukraine's defense.
He engaged with G7 leaders and other key nations, including India and Brazil, to rally backing for Ukraine's defense and advocate for his ten-point peace plan, which demands Russia's withdrawal from Ukrainian territory.
The visit followed a significant diplomatic victory, as the US dropped its reluctance to allow allies to supply Ukraine with advanced F-16 fighter jets, marking a major boost to Kyiv's military capabilities.

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.
