Fans rampage after Paris St-Germain win Champions League
In the wake of Paris Saint-Germain's back-to-back Champions League victory, chaos erupted across Paris as over 280 fans were detained and seven police officers injured during violent celebrations. Despite a massive 22,000-police deployment and transit shutdowns, the rampage echoed last year’s unrest, underscoring the deep emotional stakes for PSG supporters who finally broke through decades of heartbreak. Yet amid the destruction, the triumph was historic: for the first time, a French club has won Europe’s elite competition twice in a row, ending a long era of being 'the bridesmaid, never the bride.' The episode also covers a suspected Ebola case in Brazil, raising global alert despite low risk, and the WHO’s intensified response in the DRC’s Ituri region, where a deadly outbreak has claimed over 200 lives. In Colombia, a tense presidential election looms amid surging violence, with voters choosing between a hardline security candidate and a peace-focused leftist. Meanwhile, in Ukraine’s Kherson, bus drivers continue risking their lives daily to transport civilians under relentless drone attacks, driven by a vow: 'If we abandon these people, no one else will drive them.' And in a surprising twist, scientists have discovered a rare fungus in Britain that’s naturally fighting back against invasive heath star moss, offering hope for ecological restoration.
