French media extensively covered a significant cyberattack against the Ministry of Interior throughout the day, with reports confirming hackers accessed "dozens of confidential files." A 22-year-old suspect was later apprehended in Limoges. Concurrently, the explosion in Trévoux, Ain, which dominated headlines on previous days, was definitively attributed to a suicide by gas, resulting in three deaths, including two children. This clarified the nature of the tragedy from earlier reports. Separately, the Social Security budget was definitively adopted without the use of Article 49.3, and an agreement was reached for a united left-wing list in the Parisian municipal elections of 2026. Farmers' protests against bovine dermatosis continued, with public support remaining high, while the EU-Mercosur trade agreement faced renewed opposition from President Macron and Giorgia Meloni.
