French authorities are investigating a series of arson and gun attacks at prisons, with suspicions pointing towards drug gangs retaliating against government crackdowns. Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau believes the attacks are linked to drug-related violence, as gangs have targeted cars and a training center. A group called DDPF, claiming to advocate for prisoners' rights, has emerged, but their methods and background suggest they are more aligned with drug gangs than political extremists. The government is pushing new legislation to combat drug trafficking and improve prison security, aiming to curb the influence of drug lords.
