Drug-Crime Crackdown: France is bracing for a new wave of drug-linked violence after Nantes saw a 15-year-old shot dead on Thursday, with two other minors seriously injured—prosecutors say trafficking is the leading line of inquiry. Public Safety Pressure: The Interior Minister vowed tougher measures, including higher fines and harsher penalties for repeat offenders, as residents describe gangs moving closer to residential areas. City-by-City Alarm: The Nantes killing follows earlier headlines from Nice and Villefranche-sur-Saône, feeding a growing sense that armed violence is becoming routine. Cannes Politics & Culture: At Cannes, director Vincent Garenq used his Samuel Paty film to argue that cruelty doesn’t need spectacle—just the facts. International Signals: France also backed a special tribunal for Putin’s crime of aggression, joining a 36-country push for accountability.
