Two French journalists thought to have been kidnapped in Syria near Aleppo in early June are said to be alive. Defense Minister LeDrian said France is “doing everything possible to ensure that they are freed soon.” A group of 29 Greenpeace activists were arrested in southern France after they entered a nuclear facility in Tricastin, demanding that it be shut down.
