With the third round of the French Open underway in Paris, there is not a single player from the home country left in either singles bracket for the locals to cheer. No one to serenade with “La Marseillaise,” the national anthem, or encourage with yells of “Allez!” That’s because all 29 players from France — 10 women, 19 men — in the singles fields already were gone. This is the second time in three years with zero women or men from France still around after just two rounds (it takes seven victories to earn a title). Until 2021, that hadn’t happened even once since the dawn of the sport’s Open era in 1968.

TRIPOLI (Reuters) - Libya's Government of National Unity (GNU) stepped up drone strikes on Friday against what it said were smuggling gangs in western regions, attacking targets in Zawia, Zuwara, Ajeelat and Maya. In eastern Libya, the national parliament that seeks to replace Dbeibah's government, said this week the drone strikes were aimed at "settling political scores", saying one had targeted the home of a parliament member.

Several residents in Tripoli were lightly wounded in the clashes which began Sunday night and spread across several neighbourhoods. Libyan television and online media showed videos of the fighting posted online by social media users. The University of Tripoli said Monday it was forced to “close its doors” and suspend exams as a security measure. Last August, 32 people were killed and 159 wounded in Tripoli when groups supporting the Haftar-backed government fought with Dbeiba’s forces. On Sunday, drone strikes killed at least two people and hospitalised the nephew of legislator Ali Bouzribah, from the rival eastern parliament, whose home had reportedly been hit in strikes three days earlier.
