France suspects foreign intelligence over pigs heads left outside mosques
French police suspect foreign intelligence involvement in the recent pig heads left outside Paris mosques, likely orchestrated by a foreign power, possibly Russian. The heads were found outside nine mosques, sparking outrage and condemnation. Investigators identified connections to previous similar incidents, suggesting a trend of provocations likely aimed at destabilizing France. Initial evidence points to a Moldovan connection in the first case and possible Bulgarian involvement in the second, with authorities highlighting Russia and Iran as potential sources of dissension through such tactics.
