0:00

French police launched a massive manhunt after a gang ambushed prison guards, resulting in the death of two officers and the escape of convict Mohamed Amra. The gunmen, armed with assault rifles and in tactical gear, freed the drug boss known as “The Fly” in a brazen daylight attack. French President Emmanuel Macron condemned the attack, promising to track down the perpetrators and ensure justice is served. Amra, who was recently sentenced to prison for theft, is also suspected of involvement in a murder in Marseille. The attack has shocked the nation and France’s anti-terrorist unit GIGN is leading the hunt for the culprits. This incident is a significant setback for France as it prepares to host the Olympics.
