PARIS — Investigators on Saturday raided the house of one of French President Emmanuel Macron’s top security aides, who was caught on camera beating a protester in May, prosecutors said. The presidential Elysee Palace fired Alexandre Benalla a day before police raided his home in the Parisian suburb of Issy-Les-Moulineaux.

Video released for this first time last week by Brazil’s National Indian Foundation shows rare images of an indigenous man who is believed to be the last surviving member of his tribe. The footage was shot in 2011, though a team that tracks him says it last saw evidence he was alive in May. The shaky images taken... Читать дальше...
