Masked attackers damage RN supporters' bus at Grenoble station

At approximately 5 a.m. on Sunday, a coach loaded with Rassemblement national militants and sympathisers was attacked at Grenoble station in Isère. Masked perpetrators armed with iron bars or sticks smashed multiple windows, then quickly left the scene without causing injuries. The passengers were transferred to a replacement bus that will take them to the party's national congress in Orléans, while the vandalised vehicle was towed to a depot.

The Grenoble prosecutor's office, represented by Marianne Thirard, opened a case for aggravated voluntary violence and destruction of another's property, assigning the investigation to the Service local de la police judiciaire de Grenoble. No arrests have been reported so far. The RN congress proceeds in Orléans, following Jordan Bardella's re-election as party leader.
