Must read

Passengers in the UK and France hoping to travel to the 2024 Paris Olympic Games have been experiencing delays after French train lines were damaged.

French rail company SNCF, which operates the railways, say that these were deliberate acts of vandalism aimed at disrupting the train network.

No one was injured in the attacks to the railways, and engineers are hard at work trying to repair the lines, with limited services in France resuming this afternoon.

One in four Eurostar services have been cancelled until Monday, but Eurostar’s Chief Commercial Officer François Le Doze said he was confident most people who were aiming to travel from the UK to France today will be able to make the journey.
