India's cabinet committee on security on Wednesday approved the purchase of 36 fighter jets from France's Dassault, a senior Indian defence ministry official said. "The deal was approved at the meeting in the evening. It will now be formally signed by Indian and French defence ministers on September 23 in New Delhi," the unnamed official told AFP. The official said that other details including the exact amount and formalities "will become clear after the signing event". According to local media reports, the Indian govement has agreed to pay around $8.8 billion for the fighter jets. The purchase of Rafale aircraft, which will replace part of the country's ageing air force fleet, was first mooted in 2012 and the deal was signed in January 2016. India entered exclusive negotiations on buying 126 of the fighters four years ago, but the number of planes was scaled back during tortuous negotiations over the cost and assembly of the planes in India.

France’s Green Party is struggling to gain political momentum eight months before the first round of the country’s presidential elections, even as the ruling Socialist Party takes a pummelling in opinion polls. France’s Europe Ecology-The Greens (EELV) party will hold a two-round primary on October 19 and November 7 to pick a nominee for next year’s all-important presidential poll, but so far the inteal race has failed to pique the public’s interest. Cécile Duflot, who resigned as President François Hollande’s housing minister in 2014, is the favourite in the primary, which also includes European MPs Karima Delli, Yannick Jadot and Michèle Rivasi. Duflot is by far the most prominent of the four candidates, but recent opinion polls predict she will ea less than 5 percent support in the general election. Hollande, who has yet to confirm he will seek a second term, has seen his approval ratings sink to historic lows, with only around 10 percent of voters saying they wou International News 24/7 ...

The wife of former French president Jacques Chirac was admitted to hospital Wednesday “to rest and recuperate” on the same day a prominent French politician falsely announced on Twitter that her husband had died. Beadette Chirac, 83, was said to be “exhausted” following her husband’s hospitalisation for a lung infection, the couple’s son-in-law Frédéric Salat-Baroux told AFP. The news follows the Twitter announcement by former French housing minister Christine Boutin that Jacques Chirac, also 83, had died on Wednesday. His family denied the rumour. "President Chirac is being treated for a lung infection and I want to pay homage to the exceptional quality of the medical teams," Salat-Baroux, who was the former president’s chief of staff from 2005 to 2007, said in response to Boutin’s tweet – “Mort de #Chirac” – that caused widespread outrage on the social network. Chirac was hospitalised Sunday. Salat-Baroux, husband of Chirac's daughter Claude, asked for t International News 24/7 ...

Far-right leader Marine Le Pen on Saturday named the young politician David Rachline as the director of her presidential campaign, a risky choice who should appeal to party loyalists, while she reaches out to a broader audience. Le Pen made the widely expected announcement during a speech to supporters in the Mediterranean city of Fréjus in an event that, by her own account, marked “the start of the mobilization for this presidential campaign”. Rachline, 28, has been the mayor of Fréjus since April 2014 and the youngest member of France’s Senate since October of the same year. The leader of the anti-immigration National Front (FN) party described him as “a man who symbolizes youth, work, merit, loyalty and success”, as she made his campaign appointment official. He is also a politician with a questionable past and who has stoked controversy since he took over the mayor’s office two years ago. Experts said he represented a crafty, although risky, pick.

A ceremony to honour the victims of terrorism was held in Paris Monday, with French President François Hollande leading tributes to those killed, injured and bereaved in the recent spate of attacks. Addressing an audience of victims, the bereaved, politicians and officials at the historic Invalides military museum, Hollande promised to boost compensation and to step up the fight against terrorism. "We must ensure that sustained action is taken to anticipate attacks, deter them and stop them. It's a constant battle and it will need even more resources," he said. The French president’s speech was followed by a solemn reading of the names of the victims of the attacks carried out by Islamist extremists last year in Paris and in July in Nice. 'Compensation schemes to be fairer, more transparent' The ceremony, organised by support groups for victims of terrorism, has been held every year since 1989.

French authorities took a teenager in for questioning on Monday over a false terror alert that mobilised dozens of police officers in Paris on Saturday. Two adolescents had been brazenly bragging about the hoax online. On Saturday, French police received a call from a certain “Father Mathis” claiming ten armed men had entered Saint-Leu-Saint-Gilles church in central Paris and taken about twenty people hostage. Not only are the pranksters good impersonators, they also reportedly the church’s phone number to make it look as if the call was coming from inside the church itself. According to joualists at the French news magazine L’Obs, police had a long conversation with the caller, trying to determine if it was a hoax or not, before finally launching the emergency response. But when they did, it was full steam ahead. Dozens of police as well as members of an elite counter-terrorism unit descended on the busy Chatelet and Les Halles shopping area in Paris's first district, International News 24/7 ...

Just under 30 percent of France’s 3 to 4 million Muslims reject the country’s secular laws, according to an Ifop poll published by the French weekly Joual du Dimanche. When asked if they considered the Islamic legal and moral code of sharia to be more important than the French Republic’s laws, 29 percent of respondents answered “yes.” The poll found that 20 percent of male Muslim respondents and 28 percent of female Muslim respondents were in favour of the face veil, the niqab, and of the burqa which covers both face and body. Another 60 percent said they were in favour of letting girls and women wear a head scarf at schools and universities which is forbidden at France’s secular public institutions. Deadly attacks by Islamist militants, including bombings and shootings in Paris which killed 130 people last November and a truck attack in Nice killing more than 80 people in July, have raised tensions between communities in France.

Former French president Jacques Chirac, 83, was admitted to hospital on Sunday with a lung infection, his son-in-law said. Chirac, who led France from 1995 to 2007, was “hospitalised this moing at Pitie-Salpetriere (hospital in Paris) to be treated for a lung infection,” Frederic Salat-Baroux told AFP, adding he would remain there “in the coming days.” The popular ex-president had just retued from a visit to Morocco, Salat-Baroux added. A source close to the former president confirmed that he was conscious. Chirac, who served two terms as head of state, is probably best remembered inteationally for his opposition to the US military intervention in Iraq in 2003. A small stroke while in office in 2005 weakened him, and he is now rarely seen in public. In December 2015, he spent two weeks in hospital, suffering from what his family described as fatigue.

Security in France was heightened on Saturday as some 17,000 heritage sites, many of them closed to the general public throughout the rest of the year, opened their doors to millions of visitors for the 33rd edition of the European Heritage Days. The annual event, also known as the ‘Jouées du Patrimoine’ in French, offers a rare glimpse inside thousands of historic monuments, govement buildings and other sites across the country. The public can peek behind the normally firmly closed doors of the Elysée presidential palace, the National Archives and have a look at the world’s oldest basketball court on Rue de Trévise in Paris. However, with the French state of emergency still in place due to the recent terror attacks, this year’s edition is accompanied by a major security operation. This has resulted in some sites, including broadcaster France Télévisions and the Abbey de La Trappe, electing not to take part.

A French union activist who lost an eye this week when protesters against labour reforms clashed with security forces said Saturday he was going to take legal against the police. "I am going to file an official complaint myself. I will do everything to ensure justice is done," Laurent Theron, 46, told the BFM television news network. The Solidaires union said in a statement that Theron had "apparently been struck by a fragment of a (tear gas) grenade fired by police." "Unfortunately, despite the care he received in hospital he lost the use of his eye," the union said, adding that "nothing justified the use of force" against Theron. The statement said that Theron had been talking with colleagues in Paris' Place de la Republique towards the end of the demonstration and that nothing in the vicinity posed a threat to the police.

A Corsica court on Friday handed out prison sentences to five men over a mass beach brawl on the Mediterranean island, in a racially charged case that captured wide attention in France over the summer. The violent brawl in August injured five people and prompted the mayor of the northe Corsican village of Sisco to ban the Islamic burkini swimsuit, which was initially thought to have been at the centre of the row.  Around 100 police officers were deployed to quell the clashes.  Hundreds of people gathered outside the court in Bastia on Thursday to support two local men who faced charges over the incident alongside three brothers of Moroccan origin who grew up on another part of the French island. Mustapha Benhaddou was sentenced to two years in prison for armed violence, while his brothers Abdelillah and Jamal both received suspended sentences of six months.

Former French president Nicolas Sarkozy was likened to Donald Trump this week after the latest in a string of provocative statements that have pushed his presidential campaign ever further to the right. The comparison with the Republican candidate for the White House, a notorious climate change sceptic, followed a speech on Wednesday in which Sarkozy appeared to question the extent of human involvement in global warming. In remarks delivered at a business conference and relayed by his office, Sarkozy, who is having another shot at the French presidency after his failed re-election bid in 2012, claimed climate change was receiving too much attention. “It’s an interesting topic, but climate has been changing for 4.5 billion years,” said the 61-year-old. “Humans are not the only ones responsible.” In a blunter version of his speech, carried by weekly magazine Marianne and cited by other joualists, the conservative politician was quoted as saying: “If the Sahara became a dese International News 24/7 ...

German police Tuesday arrested three men with forged Syrian passports accused of being Islamic State (IS) group militants and labelled a possible "sleeper cell" with links to the November Paris attackers. More than 200 police commandos took part in the pre-dawn raids in northe Germany to detain the men, who were suspected of either plotting an attack or awaiting orders to commit one. The men were identified only as Mahir al-H., 17, Ibrahim M., 18, and Mohamed A., 26, in a statement issued by federal prosecutors. They left Syria last October and travelled via Turkey and Greece -- a route used by tens of thousands of refugees and migrants -- and arrived in Germany in mid-November. Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere said the three apparently used the same migrant trafficking network as several of the IS group gunmen who killed 130 people in a series of co-ordinated attacks in Paris in November last year.

Alstom will go ahead with plans to shut down manufacturing at its historic Belfort plant, its CEO said on Tuesday, setting up a confrontation with President François Hollande who vowed that "everything will be done" to stop its closure. The French engineering firm, which makes the country's famed TGV high-speed trains and is 20 percent controlled by the state, said last week it would stop making rolling stock at the factory in easte France, where its first steam locomotive was built back in 1880. The move caused a political furore over the weekend and Hollande’s govement demanded the company reconsider. The factory’s fate is set to become a hot-button issue as presidential hopefuls gear up for primaries ahead of elections next year, and France’s embattled president is expected to make a point of saving the Belfort site.

French MP Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet is the only woman running in France’s right-wing presidential primaries. She is a long-shot candidate for the Elysée palace, struggling to shake her camp out of its obsession with identity politics and security. Kosciusko-Morizet, 43, barely snuck into the main opposition Les Républicains presidential primary on Thursday, obtaining the required number of endorsements only a few hours before a deadline set by organisers. Her quest for signatures became a matter of national attention last week amid the growing prospect of a men’s only nomination contest. Bordeaux Mayor Alain Juppé – the frontrunner in the conservative primaries, according to most opinion polls – went as far as to publicly urge fellow party members to endorse Kosciusko-Morizet. “It would be a shame to have no women in the primary,” he told supporters at a rally in south-weste France on August 14, echoing Kosciusko-Morizet’s own statements.

For the 15th anniversary of the September 11 attacks in the United States, a French polling firm conducted a survey to gauge the impact of conspiracy theories among the French. The main finding? According to polling firm Odoxa, the majority of French people believe that the full story of that day has yet to be revealed to the public. Two thirds of those surveyed believe that key information has been hidden. That number gets higher the younger the respondents are, peaking with those under 25, 75 percent of whom believe facts are being withheld, as opposed to only 55 percent of those over 65. The hijackers of the planes were identified as being linked to al Qaeda, but 45 percent of French people think that we still don’t know who was behind the attacks. One of the most persistent conspiracy theories is that the Bush administration was somehow complicit in the attacks, to justify going to war in Iraq and Afghanistan, a belief held by 28 percent of those questioned in the poll.
