Are the Paris Olympics safe?
26 JUL 2024 · As Paris prepares for the opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympic Games, arsonists have targeted France's high-speed rail network causing travel chaos.
The French government has mobilised its intelligence and security services in response to the "malicious acts", but questions are being raised over the preparedness for the games, and if a heavy security presence could impact the experience of the 11 million visitors expected over the next fortnight. Â
On the Sky News Daily, host Niall Paterson is joined by our Europe correspondent, Adam Parsons, and Steve Park, an international security analyst who worked on security at the London 2012 Olympics, to assess the French response to the security threat.

Charlotte Dujardin: Why did the whipping video come out now?
24 JUL 2024 · Team GB's Charlotte Dujardin could have become the country's most-decorated female Olympian in Paris.
But she's withdrawn from the dressage after a video emerged of her whipping a horse 24 times in one minute - which she says is "out of character" and an "error of judgment". Â
Some have questioned why the video has emerged now - at least two years after it was filmed - with claims the timing is "suspicious" days before the Paris games. Â
On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson speaks to sports correspondent Rob Harris. He's also joined by dressage rider and trainer of Olympic and Paralympic medallists Pammy Hutton to discuss typical equestrian practices and techniques.Â
