(AFP) Prime Minister Gabriel Attal on Thursday pledged to “hunt down” the people responsible for sending threats to at least 30 schools in the Paris region this week.
The schools received threatening messages accompanied by “shocking” footage of beheadings, according to France’s education ministry.
The establishments — mainly secondary schools — received “serious threats” containing “justification of and incitement to terrorism,” a representative of the education ministry told AFP.
The messages came through the ENT digital platform that serves as a link between teachers, pupils and parents, internal emails, or the Pronote software used by the education ministry.
