The Promenade du Paillon is officially 10 years old, and as this remarkable oasis in the heart of Nice celebrates a decade of revitalising the cityscape, it is also gearing up for another era of expansion.
The official route of the 2024 Tour de France has been revealed in detail at a grand unveiling in the French capital. In a significant departure from tradition, the race will have a "historic” start in Florence and the first ever finish outside of Paris, crossing the finish line right here in the Riviera.
With mass power outages, broken bridges and widespread road closures, the villages in the more rural parts of the Alpes-Maritimes suffered most at the hands of Tempête Aline, whilst the coast was relatively spared.
At midday today, a yellow bus was swept down a river in Saint-Martin-Vésubie in southern France. Danish meteorologists also issued their highest warning for very dangerous weather .
Nice have suspended defender Youcef Atal over a social media post relating to the Israel-Gaza war.
Atal, 27, shared a video on Instagram on Saturday which he then quickly deleted.
Atal apologised for the post, which has been widely condemned for being offensive towards Jewish people, but the Nice public prosecutor’s office has opened “a preliminary investigation into charges of glorifying terrorism and public provocation to hatred or violence because of a specific religion”. The French Football Federation (FFF)’s National Ethics Council is also looking into the matter.
Nice say they.
