💩Fecal Hell: Seine Still Too Dirty for Swimming – Just Two Months Before Paris Olympics

French authorities have been in a race against time to clean up the River Seine, which will host the swimming leg of the triathlon at the end of July, as well as the open-water swimming in August.

Higher than authorised levels – set by sports federations and European bathing standards – of e-coli and enterococci have been found in the latest tests by Surfrider, a water charity.

Heavy rainfall in May is likely to have contributed to what Surfrider called the “poor” water quality – which is known to overwhelm Paris’s over a century-old sewage system, leading to direct discharges of untreated effluent into the river.

The move comes following a demand in February by Housing Minister Yitzhak Goldknopf to evict UNRWA.

The measure against UNRWA is seen as being politically motivated, as Israeli officials, including Netanyahu, have for long sought to dismantle UNRWA from operating in the occupied Palestinian territories.
