High schoolers have been protesting to ask for more funds for school and more teachers.
Police answers has been violent. It's an institution made under Nazi Germany rule. Condamned by the UN, Amnesty International, and others over how autoritarian the gvt is
The young girl on the left was randomly picked by the police as she was standing in front of her school. She kept screaming and crying while he was strangling her that she was 14years old and did nothing wrong.
His answer afterwards as she was crying ? " She looked older". Here is his argument about violence on a young girl. The girl later confronted him while vryong and multiple policemen took her away
A policeman called on a major radio saying that he gets sexual pleasure from hitting "the left and others". That it gives him sensations of pleasure that gives him " a hard-on" (he specifically used the word " erection") " endorphines" a bit that it was different from when you're with a woman" and yet similar" I do not know if I can link twitter. I will put it and then delete if I can't. It's in french
Black kids and arab children are the most victims of this. I won't post the pictures but one 14yo black child was handcuffed and hold by multiple policeman after fainting
A 15yo child had his hand and upper arm teared of in front of other children, by a grenade
Another child was almost killed by a policeman who tried to drown him in the river
They drove a car into the kids too and as - always- they also used gaz. France has been condemned by the UN
Multiple children have suffered physical violence, sexual harassment including rape threats ( Mathilde Panot one of our national deputee talks about it.) by the police. Including one child who said the policeman took down his pants, his underwear, forced him against a bed in his cell, and while one was holding him, another one was hitting his head while saying " your lawyer, she isn't here anymore, you little slut, you're alone"
Almost 90% of the kids arrested (almost 6000 in couple days) are minors. Among them children who were protesting, others who were just around, others who were picked up in the streets.
These are not rumors. These are documented, filmed.
This is France, the country where the president (Macron, center but really rightwing), the head of the National assemblee ( rightwing ) and the head of the Senate ( rightwingt) have all refused to open an investigation on Epstein. Which means that nothing is happening ( to open a criminal case, you need the prosecutor agreement, but in France prosecutors are not independant (link in French) . They are under the autority of the gvt.)
Sexual violence, physical one, against children all around the country, mysoginist insults & scorns towards the mothers too while they try to save their kids or beg the police to calm down
A mother was begging and crying on camera for police to stop because they are " just kids" and the police was dismissive of her, and annoyed. You can see the video on Instagram under Rennes actu
The gvt answer ? Announcement of less teachers (which the children were protesting against. They need more). So far one prosecutor lied twice front camera, despite the images saying different from what he said. One of the rightwing sent a false student ( a black kid) to talk to the journalists and pretend he was a HS. He got caught as one of the militant of the party and not at all in high school.
Police has been alleged to use snapchat to pretending to be arab children immigrants from morroco and Algeria to get names of children protesting and where they would go protest. But they can't imitate kids talking so they got caught each time. They were using slangs, putting arab names and arab flags but it of course sounded wrong. Likewise shared on twitter in french.
And in Haut de Seine ( a department near Paris. It's where Versailles is), the prefect of that place wrote on twitter :
"Parents of youths involved in violence summoned
The Prefect of Hauts-de-Seine, Alexandre Brugère, the Public Prosecutor, Yves Badorc, and the Director of National Education Services, Frédéric Fulgence, met this morning with the parents of three teenagers.
A clear message: you are morally and legally responsible for your children. Aware of the seriousness of the situation, the parents firmly committed to ensuring that these events will not happen again.
Further meetings will be held this week."
And they posted a picture of some parents ( blurry but you can still guess see or guess their ethnicity)
At the same time as the kids and now University students are arrested, attacked, and threatened, all around the country, Paris Fashion Week is on going. The city is small: 20km east west, and 10km south to north. PFW takes place within the city, so every year it blocking streets, bridges, gardens etc therefore are near the places were this violence takes place.
Children of the bourgeoisie and of more privileged background are also protesting. As Henry IV (the most elite HS school in the country) high schoolers were chanting in front of the news " We aare priviliged and we want to share (so that everyone gets the same education and studying conditions)" " On est privilégié, et on veut partager"
I am sharing information about Iraq’s new Ja’fari Personal Status Law and the concerns surrounding its potential impact on women and families in Iraq.
In 2025, Iraq passed an amendment to its Personal Status Law, allowing the application of Ja’fari Shiite jurisprudence to family matters for those covered by the amendment. A related code of religious rulings was subsequently approved and published in the Iraqi Official Gazette.
The attached image summarizes provisions that have raised concerns about women’s rights, including:
**Guardianship:** A woman’s independence and ability to make personal decisions.
**Child custody:** The conditions under which mothers may retain custody of their children after divorce.
**Marriage and divorce:** Changes to the legal framework governing family matters.
**Financial rights:** Concerns about the protection of women’s financial and housing rights.
These are serious issues that deserve international attention, independent legal analysis, and accurate reporting.
I am hoping to reach international journalists, human rights organizations, legal researchers, and people who can help bring greater awareness to this issue in Iraq.
If you have reliable sources, legal expertise, or contacts within organizations that work on women’s rights, please share them in the comments.
**How can we help bring international attention to the legal changes affecting women in Iraq?**
