France: A pilot beheads a paratrooper in the air, is banned from flying, and fined 20,000 euros | News
Harsh ruling on a French pilot!
Pilot Alan Seay, 64, has been banned from flying after he decapitated a parachutist while jumping with his plane’s wing.
Nicolas Galli (†40) was one of ten skydivers on board and one of two passengers who jumped from the plane at an altitude of about 4,300 meters above Polloc-en-Quercy near Toulouse in 2018. Just 20 seconds later, tragedy struck: Galli collided with one of the wings of plane and his head was cut off.
The Montauban Criminal Court found the pilot guilty of negligent homicide and sentenced him to suspended imprisonment. French media reported that half of the sentence was suspended.
And: The Midi-Pyrénées Skydiving School Association, where Alain C. worked, was fined 20,000 euros.
The pilot blames the paratrooper
The pilot told the court that the accident was „the tragedy of my life.” However, he insisted that he had done nothing wrong and blamed Galli for deviating from his flight path.
The French newspaper Le Parisien reported that no agreement had been reached on the path the plane should take after the jump. However, the pilot said he believed he was quite clear of the paratroopers before the jump, but conceded they „couldn’t get down too low and come into conflict with the aircraft.”
But he insisted that Galli, an experienced skydiver with 226 jumps, “did not follow the expected path and should never have been on that path”.
It was also found in court that Alan flew the plane with an invalid licence. The lawyer for the victim’s relatives condemned the pilot’s actions, describing them as „negligence or extreme negligence.”

Der Beginn des Europawahlkampfs der österreichischen Grünen ist von Turbulenzen um Spitzenkandidatin Lena Schilling überlagert worden. Am Mittwoch erschien in der österreichischen Zeitung „Der Standard“ ein Bericht, in dem Schilling zwar keine rechtlichen – oder im engeren Sinne politischen – Vorwürfe gemacht werden, aber in dem ein äußerst ungünstiges Charakterbild gezeichnet wird.
[–>
Anlass der Berichterstattung ist eine gerichtliche Unterlassungserklärung, mit der sich Schilling verpflichtet, bestimmte Behauptungen über Personen aus ihrem privaten Umfeld nicht mehr zu verbreiten. Daran anknüpfend zitiert die Zeitung mehrere anonyme Gesprächspartner in einer Weise, die es nahelegt, dass die junge politische Quereinsteigerin – bekanntgeworden als Klimaaktivistin – häufiger falsche abträgliche Behauptungen über andere Personen in die Welt setze. Schilling mochte sich in der Sache nicht äußern, da es sich um ihr Privatleben handle. Es werde gegen sie mit Gerüchten und Unterstellungen „kampagnisiert“.

Zeitung kritisiert Reaktion des Parteivorsitzenden

Die Chefredaktion des linksliberalen Blattes rügte ihrerseits, dass der Grünen-Vorsitzende journalistische Arbeit als „Gefurze“ bezeichne. Man könne jede behauptete Einzelheit belegen. Veröffentlicht wurde – bei geschwärzten Namen – die Unterlassungserklärung. In dem Artikel wird ausführlich begründet, warum man sich entschlossen habe, in dieser Weise über Dinge zu berichten, die die Privatsphäre berühren. Schilling sei Spitzenkandidatin, werde wahrscheinlich ins Europaparlament einziehen und könnte dort die österreichische Grünen-Delegation anführen. Daher sei sie eine Person öffentlichen Interesses, und es sei relevant, wie sie sich gegenüber Kollegen und auch Medien verhalte.

In einem Fall geht es darum, dass sie einem Journalisten sexuelle Belästigung vorgeworfen haben soll. Der Mann sei von einer Kündigung bedroht gewesen, doch habe eine Untersuchung durch seinen Arbeitgeber keine Hinweise darauf ergeben, dass an dem Vorwurf etwas dran sei.

Die Grünen sprachen hingegen von einer „organisierten Kampagne“. Die Fraktionsvorsitzende Sigrid Maurer meinte, das sei auch direkt gegen junge Frauen gerichtet. Klimaschutzministerin Leonore Gewessler bezeichnete die Vorwürfe als „hemmungslos“. Schilling selbst äußerte, dass sie lieber über politische Inhalte diskutieren wolle, nämlich den Klimaschutz.

Destroying the Crimean Bridge makes no sense? Warning of Ukraine’s attacks on Putin’s symbol of power
He presses
The Crimean Bridge is a symbol of power for Putin – and a tempting target for Ukraine. But a Ukrainian intelligence expert recommends a different strategy in the war.
Kiev – The Russian regime warned of a „devastating retaliatory strike” if Ukraine attacks the Russian-annexed Crimea peninsula or the Crimean bridgehead again. The reason: There is speculation in Russia that Ukraine may be planning a major attack – on the occasion of “Victory Day,” which Russia marks on May 9 with an exhibition of captured military equipment. A simultaneous attack on the bridge connecting the peninsula to mainland Russia, It would be humiliating Russian President Vladimir Putin.
This was announced by a Ukrainian military intelligence officer in the British newspaper in April Watchman To: “We will destroy the bridge in the first half of 2024” The destruction of the bridge, which has already been attacked twice, is “inevitable.”
Now a Ukrainian intelligence expert is explicitly warning against destroying the Crimean Bridge. This is not out of fear of Putin’s revenge, but because he considers this a waste of Ukraine’s already scarce military resources.
“What will the destruction of the Crimean Bridge bring us?” Warning against wrong tactics in the Ukraine war
“What will the destruction of the Crimean Bridge bring us?” asks Ivan Stupak, a former employee of the Ukrainian Internal Intelligence Service. Interview with Ukrainian News Agency Union. Destroying the Crimean Bridge will be complex and difficult. The bridge was repeatedly damaged in previous attacks, but has since been restored. „It’s not doing well.”
Stupak believes that future attempts to destroy the bridge would be a waste of energy. Especially since Russia has now responded: it is clear that Putin’s army is no longer using the bridge for military purposes.
A Ukrainian open source agency recently found using satellite images that far fewer trains pass through the Kerch Bridge than in the past. Instead, Russia is now increasingly using land routes into the annexed areas of eastern Ukraine to supply the front lines of the Ukrainian war.
The head of Ukrainian domestic intelligence, Wasyl Malik, said in March 2024 that Russia would no longer use the Crimean bridge to deliver weapons. Trains that passed the bridge now transport only people and consumer goods.
In the war against Russia, Ukraine should attack other targets instead of the Crimean bridgehead
Ukrainian military expert Stupak recommends in an interview with Union Therefore, no more missiles and ammunition are wasted on attacks on the Kerch Bridge. Instead, the Ukrainian military should attack Russian targets whose destruction would be of greater benefit. Stupak cites „headquarters and depots” as examples, as well as air defense complexes, aircraft and airfields.
For example, if Ukraine destroyed a Russian S300 anti-aircraft missile complex, this would directly help Ukrainian defense: Russia could then immediately shoot down fewer Ukrainian planes and drop fewer missiles on soldiers, “meaning we don’t lose.” Any military or military forces.” Civilians. This is a great added value. This is also a direct effect.” Because they meant to “destroy Putin’s money.”
Experts recommend launching attacks on Russian fighter planes instead of the Crimean bridge
The Ukrainian expert said that the most important thing for Ukrainian defense in the war against Russia is the destruction of Russian fighter planes carrying high-explosive glide bombs. As a result of Russia’s use of so-called FAB bombs, the Ukrainian city of Avdiivka fell, which could now be repeated in the currently besieged city of Chasiv Yar.
The military expert warns that FAF glide bombs will penetrate Ukrainian defenses “like can launchers.” Therefore, Ukraine must destroy Russian combat aircraft directly where they are stationed or when they approach Ukraine. Stupak said that would be a „great advantage and opportunity to stop the Russian advance,” unlike the elaborate attacks on the Crimean bridge.
The latter, Stupak sees, are primarily PR campaigns “for Facebook”: “There will then be likes, memes and reposts for two days,” “But what will it bring us and how will it affect the situation at the front?” Decisive. (SMU)

While things are getting more uncomfortable for former US President Trump in court in New York, he is having success in Miami: Proceedings there in the documents case probably won’t begin before the election in November.
The trial of former US President Donald Trump in the case of seizure of secret state documents was supposed to begin on May 20. But as the Florida judge in charge announced in a letter, the start of the proceedings will be postponed. Elaine Cannon explained that this was due to the open legal questions due to the large number of applications. No new date has been set.
For special prosecutor Jack Smith, the decision is a setback. The process is unlikely to begin before the presidential election in November, in which Trump is expected to run again as the Republican Party’s nominee.
Secret documents kept in a private villa
The 77-year-old was charged federally in the documents case last year. In this case, he is accused of illegally storing highly sensitive information from his presidency. In August 2022, FBI federal police searched Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida and seized several sets of documents classified as top secret that he had not turned over to the National Archives as required. It is said to have included military plans and information about nuclear weapons.
Trump is also accused of trying to destroy evidence in the case. On the most serious charges, he faces up to ten years in prison.
Trump pleaded not guilty at the impeachment hearing that took place in Miami last year. His lawyers are still trying to avoid the proceedings. Among other things, they rely on Trump’s immunity as president. They say keeping the documents as personal records was an official act of the president.
Does the judge delay the proceedings?
Judge Cannon, who is in charge of the documents process, was appointed by Trump. Critics accuse it of prolonging the process and processing requests in slow motion. As justification for delaying the start of the trial, Cannon wrote that setting a trial date at this point would be “unwise.” There are a lot of open legal questions that still need to be clarified. It will take proper preparation and time to fully and fairly address this issue in order to present this case to a jury.
A total of four cases are against Trump
For Republicans, the decision is considered a success. He is currently facing charges in a New York court in connection with secret payments to a porn actress. That’s why he regularly spends long hours in the courtroom.
In total, Trump is currently facing four criminal proceedings: In addition to the trial in the documents case and the secret money case in New York, there is also an election fraud trial at the federal level and another in the US state of Georgia.
