A far-right group known as "Barjols" is currently on trial in Paris, beginning a two-week hearing that started today.

Among the most alarming accusations is that the group plotted to assassinate President Emmanuel Macron during his visit to Moselle.

The investigation intensified following a significant police operation on November 6, 2018, in Bouzonville, Moselle, which resulted in the arrest of four individuals linked to the assassination plot.

The trial involves thirteen defendants facing serious charges, including "association de malfaiteurs terroriste," which pertains to criminal associations with intent to commit terrorism.

This legal action follows over four years of investigation that revealed a broader network associated with the Barjols group.

The operation that led to these arrests was initiated after intelligence suggested that the suspects were poised to act shortly after their arrival.

After a thorough two-week hearing, three of the defendants were sentenced to prison for their roles in the conspiracy.
