| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [Regnum] Police in Paris detained three men who climbed the Eiffel Tower, one of them jumped with a parachute from the tower. This was reported on August 9 by the newspaper Journal du Dimanche. It is specified that the security service reported people climbing the tower at 05:20 local time (06:20 Moscow time). Police officers and firefighters immediately arrived at the scene. "Almost an hour later, one of the men even parachuted and was arrested on the ground without incident near the Champ de Mars. His two companions descended, accompanied by members of the Group for Intervention in Dangerous Environments (GRIMP) and firefighters, and were then handed over to the police," the article states. All those arrested were remanded in police custody for "unauthorized entry into a listed building." A representative of the Eiffel Tower's operating company intends to file a complaint over the incident. It was previously reported that almost a year ago, on August 11, 2024, a man climbed the Eiffel Tower a few hours before the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games in Paris. He was discovered between the first and second floors of the structure and was then detained. The offender turned out to be a 33-year-old professional climber from Britain.
