Mazamet, a dead city

thumb|Shot of the “Mazamet ville morte” operation, the square in front of the town hall.
Mazamet, ville morte (French for Mazamet, dead city) is a road safety awareness campaign that took place on May 17, 1973 in Mazamet, in the departement of Tarn in the South-West of France. The 16,610 inhabitants of the city laid down on the streets for a few minutes to symbolize the 16,500 people killed in road accidents in France the previous year, a record year for road deaths in the country. The idea was the brainchild of ORTF journalist Michel Tauriac. "17 mai 1973 : le jour où la France a pris conscience de la mortalité routière#, France Info, 9 janvier 2018"Sécurité routière : il y a cinquante ans, à Mazamet, une opération de communication qui a fait date" by Pascal Charrier, La Croix, 1717 May 2023 with the support of the Comité interministériel de la sécurité routière (Interministerial Road Safety Committee), created the previous year, to visibly symbolize the country's road death tol. A documentary film of the operation, Mazamet, la ville rayée de la carte ("The town was wiped off the map") was made by Guy Seligmann and broadcast on television, to great acclaim.

2025 incident

2025 incident
In May 2025 Jaguar was operating in the Baltic Sea, potentially loading Russian crude oil. The Estonian Navy wanted to inspect the tanker on 13 May 2025. This caused an international incident involving the forces of Estonia, a Russian response, and NATO monitoring as the interaction took place. According to international laws for maritime protection, the Estonian Navy wanted to board the tanker transiting the Baltic. The European Commission decided that national authorities should ensure that tankers operated with insurance when transiting European waters.
Jaguar was inbound for Primorsk harbour, Russia, when the Estonian Navy contacted the vessel. The Equasis database reflects the same vessel as Argent, registered in Guinea-Bissau with unknown managers and a registered owner in Mauritius. The vessel was a named week earlier by the United Kingdom among the vessels hit with sanctions. The Estonian Navy requested that Jaguar change course, which the crew of the tanker declined. An Estonian Army helicopter and an Estonian Skytruck responded and were circling overhead the tanker. A Russian Su-35 fighter aircraft entered Estonian airspace overflying the area, reportedly remaining in Estonian territory for less than one minute. Acorinding to media reports the aircraft's transponder was turned off and it was not in radio contact with Estonian air traffic control. It had not filed a flight plan.
A Portuguese Air Force F-16 fighter, which was stationed at the Estonian military base in Ämari responded and also circled the unfolding incident. The Estonian Navy escorted the Jaguar out of domestic waters, and the tanker continued to the Russian port.
Estonia filed a diplomatic complaint with Russia, accusing one of its fighter jets of briefly violating Estonian airspace, as the Estonian Foreign Minister said the incident was “not acceptable in any way.”

Life

Life
Eber Lobato was born in Pigüé, Buenos Aires, into a family of artists. His father was the guitarist Adrián Lobato and his mother the singer Mary Lobato.
The origin of his name was because the civil registry employee didn’t know how to write the English name Herbert, which was requested by his English grandmother.
He first worked as an actor, and later as a director of several films during the golden age of Argentine cinema.
At the age of twenty, he joined Alfredo Alaria’s ballet company, and it was he who introduced him to Haydée Nélida Menta (Nélida Lobato), who was entering the world of advertising and who later used his surname to rise to fame. Nélida replaced Eber’s sister, who had been his first dance partner. After 15 days of starting their relationship, Eber proposed marriage to her.
He died on Thursday, December 25, 2014, at the age of 83, of an acute myocardial infarction, while celebrating Christmas with his family in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States.

Political career
Low joined the Workers' Party (WP) in 2020, and served as a secretarial assistant to Member of Parliament (MP) for Sengkang GRC Louis Chua for about three years. He became a member of WP's media team in 2023.
On 18 April 2025, Low was unveiled as part of a group of new candidates contesting the 2025 general election. Low contested in the newly-created ward of Jalan Kayu SMC against People's Action Party candidate and former cabinet minister Ng Chee Meng.
During the campaigning period of the election, several private chat messages allegedly texted by Low surfaced on Reddit and Facebook. These messages allegedly showed him voicing discontent on a variety of subjects, some including the use of profanity. In response, Low apologised for his "completely inappropriate" language, stating that he was "not proud of the way [he] expressed [his] views" and that "there is no excuse for using such language or making disparaging comments about anyone – especially those who have placed their trust in [him]".
On polling day, Low lost to Ng by 809 votes; this was the smallest victory margin by a PAP candidate in this election and made Low eligible for a Non-constituency Member of Parliament (NCMP) seat as the best performing losing opposition candidate. On 19 May, WP announced that Low would become an NCMP alongside Tampines GRC candidate Eileen Chong.
