"Fatal Collision: French Farmers' Protest Ends in Tragedy"
A female farmer was killed and her husband and daughter were injured when a car crashed into a roadblock during a nationwide protest by French farmers in the south-west, one of France's key agricultural regions. The accident, which occurred south of Toulouse, was not believed to be deliberate. The farmers have been protesting new environmental regulations and rising energy costs, with blockades on key roads. The incident has sparked widespread determination among farmers, with tractors and lorries blocking motorways and the agriculture minister calling it a "tragedy for all of us."
