Samuel Paty, professeur d'histoire-géographie, a été tué le 16 octobre 2020 après la propagation d'une fausse rumeur de discrimination raciste, à la suite d’un cours où des caricatures issues du journal satirique Charlie Hebdo avaient été présentées. Pour la première fois depuis son assassinat, des journalistes de France Télévisions ont été autorisés à filmer à l’intérieur de l’établissement scolaire où il enseignait, à Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, près de Paris. Ils ont rencontré une nouvelle génération de jeunes, déterminés à jouer leur rôle dans la lutte contre le terrorisme.

Lebanon's economic crisis has dragged on since 2019. A re-igniting of Israel's war with Hezbollah derailed the weak recovery seen last year. The World Bank now forecasts that the Lebanese economy will shrink by 6.4 percent this year, with inflation expected to reach around 17.5 percent. A growing divide is visible everywhere: in households, in businesses and even in consumer habits. Our correspondents Serge Berberi and Renée Davis report.

Dans les foyers, dans les entreprises et jusque dans les habitudes de consommation. Reportage de notre correspondant Serge Berberi.

Kyiv's mayor, Vitaly Klitschko, has advised those residents who can "temporarily relocate" for the winter to do so. That advice has been met with derision at best from many residents, who say his administration is responsible for failing to better prepare the Ukrainian capital for Russian attacks.

Following months of consultations with energy experts, Mexico is preparing to tap its shale oil and gas reserves using one of the world's most controversial extraction techniques: fracking. The process is already used to extract oil in the southeastern state of Veracruz, where local communities have long complained of pollution and environmental damage. But the administration of President Claudia Sheinbaum is seeking to reduce Mexico's reliance on the United States and – eventually – achieve energy self-sufficiency. FRANCE 24's Quentin Duval and Laurence Cuvillier report.
With just two days to go before the first round of Brazil's presidential election, artificial intelligence is taking centre stage, whether it's a deepfake avatar of former president Jair Bolsonaro to support his son's candidacy, or an AI-generated working-class female voter criticising President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva. According to the Brazilian intelligence agency, disinformation will be one of the main challenges of this election. Our correspondents report.

But the AI boom is now sparking a backlash from some of the voters who helped put him back in office. Pierrick Leurent and Valérie Defert have this report.
