Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu's visit to wildfire-stricken Gironde dominated the day. Arriving in Le Porge, he was met with boos from residents angry over the state's response. He promised 'total transparency', dismissed 'conspiracy theories', and announced a €12 million aid package, expedited building permits, and a guarantee fund. The Landes fire was declared fixed, allowing evacuees to return. Meanwhile, the tax authority cyberattack continued to unfold, with hackers claiming to have sold stolen data, and the government facing criticism over the breach. In politics, Gérald Darmanin endorsed Édouard Philippe for the 2027 presidential election, reshaping the race. Other stories included a boat collision in Cannes, a military plane crash in Salon-de-Provence, and the death of actress Hayden Panettiere.
