Witnesses later confirmed to AFP that the suspect had shouted the phrase multiple times A civilian passerby who tried to intervene was fatally wounded Macron said that the French government will continue its work “to eradicate terrorism from our soil.” “The European Union is concerned at the planned extension of the operation by Israeli forces in Gaza,” a Commission spokesperson says. “Excellent result,” cheers former Polish PM Mateusz Morawiecki.

(CNN) — One person has died and several are wounded following a knife attack at a town market in eastern France, in what French authorities have described as an act of terror. “Horror has just gripped our city. A man attacked passers-by at the covered canal market with a knife, several municipal police officers who intervened to neutralize him were also injured,” Mulhouse town mayor Michèle Lutz said in a statement Saturday on Facebook. The suspect has been arrested and is currently in police custody, according to a press release by the office of France’s national anti-terror prosecutor. The attacker had targeted several municipal police officers, shouting “Allahu Akbar,” as well as a passerby, the prosecutor’s office said. A civilian has died, and three officers are injured. French President Emmanuel Macron expressed condolences to the victim’s family, adding that France’s national anti-terror prosecutor is looking into the case. Macron also described the attack as “no doubt, an Islamic terrorist act, given the terrorist’s words.” This is a developing story and will be updated.

them in the exploration of Impossible Worlds admissions of defeat as well as promises for the future In a global context dominated by the risk of ecological disasters future prospects seem to point towards worlds that are far less habitable At a time when several dystopian scenarios seem to have become subjects of factual debate connecting human and living cycles is becoming more critical than ever The connection between human life and that of plants and the living world is essential if we are to transform worlds that have become impossible to live in for certain species This edition of the Biennial invites us to pay closer attention to the diversity of life forms but also to enter into sensitive and sometimes projected worlds of possibility The program is anchored in our post-industrial era one of the "cradle cities of industrial imagery" The exhibition on Paul Wolff (born in Mulhouse in 1887) reminds us of times when industrial progress was envisaged to hold the keys to a better world Paul Wolff produced numerous "industrial reportages" dedicated to specific sectors (steel The Paul Wolff collection in the Municipal Library's reserves reflects Mulhouse's industrial heritage

evolving collective project Following on from its first version (Malta the exhibition at the Fine Arts Museum will explore the passages between the living world and human constructions Bernard Plossu's La nature prisonnière bears witness to the artificial staging of nature in fully concreted spaces it was obvious that man was trying to make people believe that everything was fine in the

Bayrou even took fire from the left last month for claiming it felt like parts of France were being “flooded” with migrants The shift in attitude toward migration isn’t limited to France. Across the border in Germany, incoming conservative Chancellor Friedrich Merz has vowed to close the country’s borders to asylum seekers after an Afghan man was accused in January of attacking a group of preschoolers in a park stabbing to death a 2-year-old boy and a man attempting to protect the children and the historic performance of the far-right Alternative for Germany were seen as both a vindication of his strategy and confirmation of Europe’s increasingly anti-immigrant tilt Many French ministers have been reticent to publicly discuss policy specifics ahead of Wednesday’s meeting, although government spokesperson Sophie Primas told RTL on Monday that authorities may consider limiting the number of visas granted to Algerian nationals Primas added that Bayrou’s government is also considering increasing the length of time authorities can detain undocumented migrants to allow for more time to negotiate repatriations Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said Wednesday ahead of the meeting that he would propose European-wide visa restrictions for countries who refuse to cooperate with French immigration authorities He also proposed to reduce tariffs for countries more willing to cooperate A report from the French Court of Auditors estimated that only about 10 percent of expulsion measures had resulted in individuals actually leaving France “When you deliver an order to leave French territory you need the country where the person is being deported to issue a consular pass,” said Charly Salkazanov Salkazanov said the astonishingly low repatriation rate was due in part to the shaky legal justification for some deportation orders and the fraught diplomatic relations between France and many of the countries where it seeks to deport undocumented people Retailleau has launched his own public crusade against the Algerian authorities, accusing them in January of seeking to “humiliate” France by refusing to accept an Algerian national expelled from French territory The individual was detained for sharing videos on TikTok urging his followers to harm a critic of the Algerian regime A series of Algerian nationalist content creators have since been arrested and are being prosecuted at Retailleau’s request The field of candidates hoping to succeed Emmanuel Macron is starting to take shape two years ahead of the next election Bruno Retailleau

covered with starfish opening and closing all over your body begin positing what a critical poetics of Bhanu Kapil[1]’s writings with a focus on issues of migration might look like to take migration as both physical and stylistic including literary migration between forms and formats of expression how Incubation: A Space for Monsters could be read as a mode of re-visiting Donna Haraway’s A Cyborg Manifesto or even rewriting it from the point of view of the cyborg herself why filming then writing in the location of the “Bengali Wolf Girls” gave rise to Humanimal: A Project for Future Children a parallel arises in her many notes/instructions and the moments of placing her body (à la Ana Mendieta) in a space examining the red flowers wilting and locating in that cycle of life/death “A book of time for time and because of it./A book for recovery from an illness A book that repeats a sentence until that sentence recuperates its power to attract other sentences./ A book as much poetry as it is a forbidden or unfunded area of research.” The body and the written word have always been intimately Kapil’s writing has always been a form of open-ended interrogation including works that even emerge from asking others as in her first book Vertical Interrogation of Strangers many authors explore hybrid genres and practices which expand into performance then return to the book What Kapil’s work does which is unique to this exploration is to deny that any difference between on and off the page the written the read and the being written exist in any way as separate from the body The tactile materiality of the world itself and language are one as her citing of Alfonso Lingis’ Abuses opens Humanimal: “They open up a body that is a lesion in the tissue of words and discourses and the network of powers” As Kapil explains quite directly in an interview: “I want a form that […] lets the sentence be the place where the dirt This conference will thus deliberately focus on a broad reading of the issues stylistic aspects and echoes both on and off of the page of Bhanu Kapil’s writing and performance work as it relates specifically to the somatics of her immigrant/emigrant line

For her, the fair is a ‘cultural hub’ where ‘dialogues are created, new talents discovered and connections between players in the art world strengthened.’ As for Wymann, she is delighted with the ‘boon’ Art Basel represents for ‘exhibition spaces peripheral to the fair.’ She concludes: ‘It’s up to us to show that the programs in outlying venues are of high quality, and that it’s not complicated to get there!’ Ingrid Luquet-Gad is an art critic and PhD candidate based in Paris.

Mulhouse Alsace Agglomeration is gathering 39 cities located in the northeast of France that is very close to the borders of Switzerland and Germany It has a population of 280,000 inhabitants including its central city Mulhouse and its 110,000 inhabitants m2A is located in Alsace which belongs to the European Community of Alsace The Camp will bring together more than 370 athletes and 170 coaches from 31 countries Each country will have accesses to all of the training facilities that feature top-level technology and implementation The goal is to provide athletes with all the necessary comforts for their stay and preparation for the Paris 2024 Olympics The camp will help prepare athletes from 19 sports Athletes from the American continent will be able to arrive to the camp in Mulhouse up to 12 days before their competition at Paris 2024 Each athlete must leave to begin their stay in the Olympic Village five days before their competition begins at Paris 2024 the benefits of this training camp go beyond just assisting athletes with their preparations for the Games the athletes will share their experiences with hundreds of children and young people from the participating cities delivering a social and cultural impact by becoming important drivers of motivation and incentive for the new generations “This camp not only aims to help our athletes prepare and arrive in the best way for the Olympic Games but also to create an unforgettable experience for them where they can inspire hundreds of children and young people from Mulhouse Alsace Agglomeration who will have the possibility of watching the training sessions sharing with the athletes and exchanging experiences,” added Jimena Saldaña The Paris 2024 Olympic Games will take place from Friday The stars of world athletics are already in the Jamaican capital to […] A constellation of world athletics greats will gather this weekend in Kingston Argentina’s outstanding hockey player was told that she will not continue in […] professionals from different areas and 10 Olympic […] At the Inaugural Congress of the Confederation the entire Executive Committee of […] which is being broadcast live around the world on the […] The Olympic champion and world record holder in the triple jump The cities that expressed their interest must submit a series of requirements […] Météo Mulhouse Festival  (Six venues in Mulhouse has always been known for its adventurous programming.  In the past this has meant a focus on free jazz but since 2019 under the directorship of Mathieu Schoenahl it has moved into a more mixed programme that involves experimental music often involving electronics and post rock Audiences are growing: attendance this year was considerably greater than last year (reviewed still an important part of the programme.  The three main concerts on Day 1 captured the essence of the programme It began with Maggie Nicols solo performing songs all with an engaging spontaneity.  Maggie was followed by an Italian duo Deborah Walker (an unusual name for an Italian!) on cello and vocals and Silvia Tarozzi on violin and vocals.  They sang songs originally performed by working class women seeking better conditions and songs of the Italian resistance during WW2 Walker and Tarozzi have been workshopping with noted French improvisers and incorporated elements of free jazz into the development of the songs.  This worked well with the improvisations bringing out the energy of the songs; it worked particularly well when Maggie Nicols joined them for the final two songs performed her Glitch set; in this she uses electronics and tapping of the body of the instrument to transform the accordion into a percussive instrument.  This was an impressive and absorbing performance of what I assume to be a carefully planned rather than an improvised set Highlights on Day 2 were two acts from the contemporary New York scene:  Ava Mendoza’s solo set featured her songs rooted in the blues accompanied by her blues rock guitar playing Amirtha Kidambi’s Elder Ones featured Kidambi’s tribute to the trumpet player Jaimie Branch Indian farmers protesting against government policies The subtle electronic manipulation of the sound of the two saxophones and the powerful drumming of Matt Sawyer gave a strong impetus to the set Two contrasting approaches to the integration of electronics were noteworthy.  The Sleep Of Reason Produces Monsters performing the final set of the festival matched the powerful electronic sounds of Mariam Rezaei and Gabriele Mitelli on turntables with the equally powerful drumming and percussion of Lucas König and the alto saxophone of Mette Rasmussen.  Together they created an amazing whirlwind of sound; it was all very exciting my only concern being that the turntable sound plus the drums often overwhelmed the sound of the saxophone and Mitelli’s pocket trumpet  when he switched to that The Tennota duo of Grundik Kasyansky on electronics and Tom Wheatley on double bass performed a nicely subtle approach to the integration of improv and electronics with a nice flow of ideas swapped between the two players One interesting development apparent at the festival is the increasing presence of improvising pipes players using electronics to augment or manipulate the sound of the pipes.  Carme Lopez’s set was disappointing in that she only used her Galician pipes very briefly to feed the electronics she was focussing on. Lyon-born Montreuil based sound artist Clément Vercelleto used the pipes in a similar way to set up his electronic sounds but played an excellent solo on the pipes at the end of the set.  Glasgow-based Harry Gorski-Brown played the pipes throughout his set apart from one piece with violin.  His approach is a mix of tradition and innovation with the sound of the pipes gently augmented with electronics accompanying traditional songs sung mostly in Gàidhlig.      Gorski-Brown’s set took place in the Temple de Saint Étienne a beautiful church with stunning stained glass windows.  This was also the setting for two other solo sets one by American saxophonist Patrick Shiroishi and the other by pianist Ingrid Schmoliner.  The latter played an hour long engaging minimalist piece using a prepared piano to create gentle electronic effects A final point:  the British – and especially the Scottish – representation in the programme was strong; we have mentioned  Maggie Nicols and Mariam Rezaei who was joined by her partner, Stewart Smith in a DJ set that closed the festival late on the Saturday night.   There was also a set from the post rock group from Scotland Tony Dudley-Evans was a guest of the Météo Mulhouse Festival which is supported by the French national jazz agency AJC  LINK: Review of 2023 Festival Comment * document.getElementById("comment").setAttribute( "id" "a6d590666d210ffe61ce7823400a603d" );document.getElementById("c08a1a06c7").setAttribute( "id" and website in this browser for the next time I comment Please check your inbox (and also your spam or junk folder We kindly request to oblige by fair use rules when quoting or sharing our content All original content is copyrighted unless credited otherwise but does take on work as a paid publicist and/or sell advertising packages Where a piece published after 26th October 2012 appears which is linked to this activity the content will be clearly sign-posted with the PP symbol Receive our weekly email newsletter with Jazz updates from London and beyond If you’ve been on our list all along SEVERAL police officers have been targeted in a horror terrorist attack which has left one dead in France The stabbing spree was reportedly carried out by a "known terror suspect" who shouted "Allahu Akbar" as he stormed through a busy market square The knife attack happened on Saturday at around 4pm in the city of Mulhouse The suspect is believed to be a 37-year-old Algerian who was listed on the Terrorist Radicalization Prevention Reporting File French President Emmanuel Macron has since told reporters: "It is an Islamist terrorist act - that is beyond doubt." Nicolas Heitz, the regional prosecutor, said the suspect was arrested just minutes after he started the rampage. One victim is said to have died after sustaining multiple stab wounds to their neck. A 69-year-old Portuguese man described as an innocent "passer-by" at the market was confirmed as the victim by the anti-terrorism prosecutors office. Another municipal cop and two parking control officers were also left with minor injuries Terrifying images show a swarm of police at the popular market Armed soldiers and special forces police secured the square where the attack took place later in the day Mulhouse Mayor Michele Lutz paid tribute to the brave officers and said: "Horror has seized our city." French prime minister Françoise Bayrou also said on X: "Fanaticism has struck again and we are in mourning "My thoughts naturally go to the victims and their families with the firm hope that the wounded will recover "Congratulations to the police for their rapid intervention." An investigating source spoke on the horrors and claimed the man was due to attend a nearby police station before carrying out the attack They said: "The man was attending a police station to sign his judicial control form connected with his house arrest and instead attacked a number of people with a knife Those hurt included at least three municipal police officers." It follows a series of attacks across Europe in recent weeks On Friday, a Syrian refugee reportedly attempted to slit the throat of a 30-year-old Spanish tourist from behind in Germany The suspect attacked at Berlin's Holocaust Memorial and said he wanted to "kill people out of hatred of Jews" Just days earlier, Germany was again rocked by a suspected terror attack when an Afghan asylum seeker ploughed his car into a group of demonstrators in Munich A 37-year-old mother and her two-year-old daughter were killed in the attack and injured at least 26 others Officials say the 23-year-old was motivated by "Islamic terrorism" before his alleged role in the bloodbath attack that left five others injured Authorities have described the knife attack in a French town that left at least one person dead and several others wounded as a ‘terror attack’ Mulhouse town mayor Michèle Lutz said in a statement: “And the horror has just swept over our town A man attacked passers-by at the covered canal market with a white weapon several municipal police officers who intervened to neutralize him were also injured.” “The toll rises at this time to one person dead and several injured.Terrorist trail seems to be privileged at the moment Of course it needs to be confirmed judicially,” Michèle Lutz said The suspect was arrested and taken to police custody a database launched in 2015 after the Charlie Hebdo and Jewish supermarket attacks to monitor individuals at risk of “terrorist” radicalisation The attacker had targeted several municipal police officers shouting “Allahu Akbar,” as well as a passerby the prosecutor’s office was quoted as saying by CNN the attacker was identified as an Algerian national French President Emmanuel Macron has expressed condolences to the victim’s family Macron also described the attack as ‘no doubt French Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau wrote on X: “Once again And it is the migratory disorders that are at the origin of this act.” Attaque "terroriste" à Mulhouse: "On doit changer les règles" sur le maintien en centre de rétention, affirme Bruno Retailleau pic.twitter.com/dONptkppWi France’s national anti-terror prosecutors unit (PNAT)has taken charge of the probe into the incident View Results We use cookies to ensure you get the best experience on our website we are discussing the madness that occurred at the Ft Lauderdale Pro Swim Marchand has a few areas of improvement to work on if he hopes to return to his Paris form at the World Championships this summer in Singapore having tight battles in both the 200 and 400 IM but ultimately touching 2nd in both Angela Martinez Guillen won her first over individual World Cup title in her home country Italy swept the podium on the men’s side Olympic champions Kristof Milak and Tom Dean are among the newly announced commitments to the Monaco Mare Nostrum stop from May 17-18 June 03rd, 2024 Club, Europe, International, News The Horter family reportedly received suspended sentences on Monday for a financial scam involving their Mulhouse Olympic Swimming Club (MON) meaning they will likely avoid prison by serving time on probation though a trial in his case has still not concluded MON president Franck Horter was dealt an eight-month suspended sentence for totaling over $265,000 worth of fake invoices went unpunished for breach of trust related to about $600 worth of expense report items Marjorie Hauswirth, the wife of Lionel Horter got a 10-month suspended sentence in addition to a two-year ban from managing a company A court in eastern France determined she funneled more than $280,000 to consulting companies owned by her husband and brother-in-law MON was also indicted for fraud for acts dating back to 2014-16.
