North Korea's Kim warns Washington as biggest ICBM launched
14 Sept 02:57Key points summarised by AI
North Korea launched its most powerful solid-fuel ICBM, the Hwasong-18, capable of reaching US shores, signaling a clear warning to hostile forces.
Leader Kim Jong Un vowed to accelerate the country's nuclear build-up and cautioned Washington against making any 'wrong decision' following the missile test.
The launch occurred after the nuclear-powered submarine USS Missouri docked in Busan and followed a US-South Korea warning that a nuclear attack would mean 'the end of the Kim regime'.
The US, South Korea, and Japan activated a system to share real-time data on North Korean launches, enhancing their security cooperation in response to Pyongyang's growing nuclear threats.
Macron condemns those who 'sought to bring down the Republic' after rioting mars nationwide protests
19 Oct 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.
