A teacher and a student at a horticulture college in the southern French city of Antibes were injured Wednesday by a knife attacker, according to police, in the most recent assault to target a school in the nation.
According to officials, the victims—a 52-year-old teacher and a 16-year-old student—were gravely hurt, but their lives were not in jeopardy.
Antibes MP Eric Pauget wrote on X, “Thank you to the national and municipal police, as well as the fire brigade, for their rapid response and exemplary commitment in this extremely tense situation, symbolic of the tragic rise in violence in our country.”
