aljazeera.com

French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu will seek an extraordinary parliamentary session to fast-track a security bill following recent football-related violence. The RIPOST bill, already passed by the Senate, aims to address "everyday disorder" and expand police powers. Over 200 arrests were made after Paris Saint-Germain's Champions League win, which saw significant public disorder. The government seeks to hold perpetrators accountable for damages, with proposals to recover costs more effectively, potentially using a portion of welfare benefits.
