A video compilation claiming to show zoo animals roaming Paris streets is made up of clips that are not recent and is unrelated to the ongoing riots in France in June and July 2023. Social media users shared a compiled video of unrelated footage showing animals roaming city streets at night, with the caption: “It is being reported that in the French riots, numerous zoo animals have been released in France” on Facebook (here) and Twitter (here). However, the videos predate riots in France over the police shooting of a teenager of Algerian and Moroccan descent on June 27 (here). The clip of a sprinting zebra shot from the dashcam of a vehicle could be traced to a tweet published on April 11, 2020 (here). There is no evidence that animals have been released from Paris zoos amid riots in the city in 2023.

Diego Maradona a fost condus pe ultimul drum. Legendarul fotbalist a fost înmormântat la cimitirul Jardin de Bella Vista, aflat la 35 de km de Buenos Aires, alături de părinții săi. Cortegiul funerar a fost însoțit de sute de mii de oameni, de motocicliști care claxonau și de fani care îi cântau numele. Pentru a evita o aglomerație și mai mare, autoritățile au fost nevoite să schimbe traseul inițial. Priveghiul a decurs fără incidente în primele ore, însă odată ce s-au strâns tot mai multe persoane lucrurile au degenerat.
