Over 60 Kenyans, rescued from Myanmar's notorious cyberscam compounds, are currently stranded in "dire" conditions at the Myanmar-Thailand border, unable to cross for repatriation.
Thai authorities have maintained a border crossing closure since February 12, 2025, preventing the freed workers from reaching Thailand, prompting Kenyan officials to investigate alternative routes for their citizens' return.

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.
