On Demand News | LIVE: French Rail Network Hit By 'Massive Attack' Ahead of Paris Olympics @OnDemandNews | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
SNCF says it’s been a victim overnight of a "massive attack aimed at paralysing the network”.
Fires were started at three points on TGV lines running west, north and east of Paris.
A fourth arson attack on the line running south to Lyon and the Mediterranean was foiled.
The result is that TGV trains are being diverted onto other lines, leading to delays of up to two hours and some cancellations.
Repairs will not be completed until after the weekend.
No claim of responsibility has been made but many experts see a link with the Olympic Games.
