At about 4:00 p.m., firefighters and the police were sent with a hot engine to Croisilles (Pas-de-Calais) in the north. At the same time, other groups rushed to Vald’Yerre, near Courtalain in Eure-et-Loir (Atlantic side). At Lamorville on the Meuse (east side), they were also moved to two different places. The restaurant is also located between Montparnasse station and Vanves-Malakoff in the Hauts-de-Seine. A specific security source said that “a graphic analysis of the sabotage seems to indicate a desire to cut off Paris from its main TGV lines”.
