French authorities believe that far-left extremists may have been responsible for a major attack on the country's rail network. An arrest has been made in north-west France, with a 28-year-old suspect being questioned by police in Rouen. The investigation is ongoing, but Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin has stated that the attacks were "deliberate, very precise, extremely well-targeted" and that far-left activists, including anarchists, have a history of targeting the train network with arson attacks. However, it is worth noting that the investigation is still ongoing and no official confirmation of the perpetrator's identity or motives has been made.

    1. It was obviously extremely well targeted, it wasn't done randomly, and it affected three major lines.
    2. This is the traditional mode of action of the far left. We must be careful, the question is whether they were manipulated or is it for their own benefit. There are people who can approach this movement.
    1. Thanks to the exceptional efforts of SNCF Network staff, who worked non-stop since Friday morning, repairs are now fully completed on all the high-speed rail services affected by the sabotage attacks.
    2. Tests have been conclusive and the train lines can now function as normal.
