A health defense council under pressure, deadly fires in Algeria and PSG has its Messi



Did you miss the early morning news? We have concocted a recap to help you see more clearly.

In this month of August, the executive is once again under pressure in the fight against the coronavirus. The Health Defense Council has a particularly busy menu on Wednesday at 11 a.m. Chaired by Emmanuel Macron by videoconference from Brégançon in the Var, it will deal with the outbreak of cases in the West Indies, vigilance in the South, the health pass and also the evolution of vaccination. Jean Castex will attend from Carcassonne, where he comes to visit the Hospital Center. Sébastien Lecornu, Minister of Overseas, will connect from Guadeloupe, where he flew on Tuesday. Olivier Véran (Health) joined him the Head of State at Fort de Brégançon before going to Martinique in turn on Thursday.

Charred trunks, dying, asphyxiated cattle, and villages surrounded by smoke while the surrounding hills glow…. The images circulating on social networks show the violence of the fires which have ravaged northern Algeria since Monday. The results are above all terrible and unfortunately it is only provisional. At least 42 people have lost their lives, authorities said on Tuesday, citing fires “of criminal origin” fueled by a heatwave episode. Algeria is indeed experiencing a summer marked by water scarcity and meteorological services predict temperatures of up to 47 degrees.

The supporters and managers of the club will be able to stop pinching themselves to believe it: Lionel Messi is indeed a Paris Saint-Germain player. The club formalized Tuesday evening the arrival of the Argentine superstar, who signed a contract for two seasons, with an additional year as an option. The “Pulga” will wear the number 30, the one he had in his professional debut with FC Barcelona between 2004 and 2006. And to be sure that we actually stop pinching as the information was still a matter of concern. fantasy barely two weeks ago: on his arrival in the afternoon at Le Bourget airport, the attacker had put on a “Here is Paris” t-shirt. It only remains to find a new slogan … “Paris is Messi”?
