France declares 12 July Alfred Dreyfus Day to mark republic's antisemitic scandal

From 2025, France marks 12 July as Alfred Dreyfus Day, the anniversary of his rehabilitation after years of wrongful conviction for espionage. The national date commemorates the antisemitic hysteria of the late 19th century, the prioritising of army loyalty over truth, and a state that defended its own lie for years. The new commemoration falls two days before Bastille Day.

Was France right to make 12 July Alfred Dreyfus Day a national commemoration?

Ukrainians use VPNs to fake fuel shortages at Russian petrol stations

Ukrainian internet users are using VPNs to report fake fuel shortages at Russian petrol stations in navigation apps. Russian drivers see most stations marked as closed or out of fuel and avoid them without checking in person. The campaign is a form of civilian cyber-trolling aimed at disrupting daily life in Russia.

Is this kind of digital trolling a legitimate form of warfare against Russia?

Analysts say the outlook for Poland's tourism sector remains very positive as Poles rapidly close the gap on Europe's most travel-active societies.

Should Poland invest more in domestic tourism to keep spending at home?

The system miniaturises the EMALS technology already used on China's newest aircraft carrier. Transported in standard shipping containers, it could theoretically be deployed anywhere in the world.

Ukraine wants NATO membership, but experts question its readiness

Ukraine is pressing for fast-track NATO membership, citing its troops' extensive combat experience. Analysts note, however, that accession criteria go beyond battlefield capability and include interoperability, institutional stability and joint planning capacity. Questions remain about how closely Ukrainian structures align with Alliance standards.

Renault 4 E-Tech Plein Sud review: retro electric cabriolet tested near Barcelona

The all-electric Renault 4 E-Tech returns in a Plein Sud variant featuring a fabric soft-top instead of a rigid roof. The car was put through its paces on various roads near Barcelona, including a check of the engineers' claim of exceptional cabin quietness at 130 km/h. The tester describes the drive as enjoyable and nostalgic, evoking the spirit of the original R4.

Is the electric Renault 4 soft-top a worthy successor to the iconic original?

'Five Years, Four Months' review: a tense portrait of a Colombian mother searching for her disappeared son

"Five Years, Four Months" centres on a grieving Colombian mother searching for her forcibly disappeared son, set against the backdrop of Colombia's decades-long armed conflict involving the government, paramilitaries and guerrilla groups. Critics praise the film's impressive command of tension and its emotionally affecting performances. The subject remains painfully relevant, as thousands of Colombians have been forcibly disappeared since the mid-1960s.

Is cinema an effective way to raise awareness of Colombia's disappearances crisis?
