evidence: Posts on social media, shared hundreds of times, claim that the iconic Arc de Triomphe in Paris has been "defaced" with a giant rainbow installation to celebrate Pride Month. [...] The artist told AP that he had created the animation of the Arc de Triomphe with a mixture of recorded footage and programmes such as Adobe After Effects, and that the video—posted on 1 June (the first day of Pride Month)—"was intended to just be a really positive message of support as an ally and someone who loves the community". [...] Recent footage, such as a livestream hosted by World Rugby on 1 June, shows the monument in Paris without the rainbow installation.
