The harassment lawsuit alleges "aggravated cyber-harassment" against Khelif, according to a statement from the boxer's lawyer, Nabil Boudi, who was quoted by The Associated Press. Variety reported that the complaint was filed against X, which means under French law that it was filed against unknown persons. Investigators at the Paris prosecutor's office will determine who could be at fault in Khelif's complaint.

If she ends up being found liable in an EU country, I bet she won't be able to travel to any EU country without facing that liability. X is an international platform, and she's broadcasting her words internationally, so yes, she can be held accountable in countries where this carries civil or criminal liability.

One particularly grim side effect of the plant’s construction is that birds, attracted to the insects gathering at the top of the towers, are incinerated as they pass through the beams of concentrated sunlight. According to estimates, this results in some 6,000 deaths every year.

Geez, maybe develop some kind of screen or something
