Two years on, Paris attack survivors turn to therapy, drugs

Description

Nightmares, phobia, fear and panic… the victims and the witnesses of Paris's November 13 attacks suffer from post-traumatic stress. For them, psychotherapy is often the go-to treatment to help rebuild their lives. But another innovative method is also offered to them: reducing the emotional weight of the memories by taking Propranolol, a drug prescribed to treat migraines and high blood pressure.

France's Macron honours WWII Resistance, 80 years after attack in the Alps

French President Emmanuel Macron is paying tribute to the heroism of members of the World War II Resistance based at a remote Alpine plateau who were attacked by the Nazi army and French collaborationist forces. Members of the resistance used the Vercors Plateau as a refuge after the occupation of France from 1940, receiving airdrops from the Allies and even occasional visits by British agents with the top-secret Special Operations Executive (SOE) unit. With 2024 marking 80 years since the penultimate year of World War II, Macron is making a series of high-profile commemorations to remember resistance heroes but also to note the role played by native French collaborationist militia (milice) in the German occupation.
