FRENCH authorities were last night frantically trying to find those behind the arson attacks that crippled train services, in a bid to prevent more chaos.
High speed lines into Paris from across the country were targeted, just hours before the Olympic Games opening ceremony began.
The finger of blame was pointed at France’s ultra left groups, Russia due to its Games ban and Islamic terrorists. There were scenes of chaos at Paris Gare du Nord and the city’s Gare Montparnasse as thousands of passengers arrived to find trains cancelled or delayed.
President Emmanuel Macron ally Natalia Pouzyreff said: “This was planned, co-ordinated, a political act. It may have come out of the far left but could also be foreign interference.”
French PM Gabriel Attal added intelligence services have been mobilised to find the perpetrators of the “acts of sabotage”.
