CNN —Public schools in France have been turning away students for breaking a new national ban on the abaya, a long, robe-like garment often worn by Muslim women, as a rights group filed an appeal against the prohibition. A total of 67 girls returned home rather than remove their abayas, Education Minister Gabriel Attal told CNN affiliate BFMTV on Tuesday. The ban has its legal foundation in a law passed in 2004 banning the wearing of “conspicuous” religious symbols in schools. “They say that the abaya is a religious dress, but it’s not at all, it’s not a religious dress, it’s a traditional dress, it’s a dress that all girls wear, both veiled and non-veiled, and so it’s a bit of a problem,” she said. French President Emmanuel Macron has defended the ban, saying it is not “stigmatizing” anyone but “people who push the abaya” are.

Tunisia thus keep their unwanted record of not progressing from the group stage in six World Cup appearances. Tunisia's win also ended France's six-match winning streak at the World Cup.

Legea ce permite eutanasierea a intrat în vigoare vineri în Spania, făcând din această ţară una dintre puţinele din lume care permit unui pacient cu o boală incurabilă să moară pentru a-şi pune capăt suferinţei, relatează France Presse, citat de agerpres.ro. Spania este a patra ţară europeană care a dezincriminat eutanasia, după Olanda, Belgia şi Luxemburg. Această lege permite atât eutanasierea - atunci când îngrijitorul provoacă moartea pacientului -, cât şi sinuciderea asistată medical - când pacientul însuşi ia doza prescrisă de produs pentru a muri. Această lege divizează opinia publică în Spania şi stârneşte opoziţia partidelor de dreapta şi a Bisericii Catolice. Partidul Popular, principala formaţiune de opoziţie, a depus un recurs împotriva acestui text joi la Tribunalul Constituţional.
