ANKARA: France's outgoing prime minister on Friday said the 'acts of sabotage' on railways in France had 'massive and serious' impacts. 'Early this morning, acts of sabotage were carried out, in a prepared and coordinated way, on SNCF facilities," Gabriel Attal wrote on X. "The results on the railway network are massive and serious.' Attal thanked the firefighters who intervened and the SNCF employees who are working to reestablish the network. 'Our intelligence services and security forces are mobilized to find and punish the authors of those criminal acts,' the premier added. Sports Minister Amelie Oudea-Castera in an interview with BFMTV said the traffic would be "disrupted today and probably also the weekend." "At this point in the analysis, I understand that it is probably one or some malicious acts, some coordinated sabotage," Oudea-Castera said and stressed that she keeps her prudence when saying it as things are being analyzed now. The minister condemned the "deplorable" acts, and added: "Playi ng against the Games is playing against France." Transport Minister Patrice Vergriete on X condemned the "coordinated malicious acts" that would impact the holiday travels of many French. He thanked the SNCF teams who work to eliminate the disruptions. Paris 2024 Olympic Games will officially start with Friday's opening ceremony on the River Seine. The football, archery, and rugby events began earlier this week before the ceremony.
