IN THE PRESS – February 5, 2021: We look at reactions in the French papers to the government’s latest Covid-19 announcements and in particular at whether France is inching towards another lockdown. We then turn to the French and Lebanese press following the assassination of prominent Lebanese activist Lokman Slim. We also look at how the GameStop frenzy has led to a massive rise in amateur online trading in Israel and at how an Elon Musk tweet has thrust the “dogecoin” cryptocurrency into the spotlight.
