JAKARTA - France's national rail operator, SNCF, revealed as many as 800 thousand passengers were affected by the paralysis of French high-speed rail services.
French high-speed rail operations experienced simultaneous disruption following sabotage ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics.
"We regret not being able to operate the expected train," SNCF Chairman and CEO Jean-Pierre Farandou told BFMTV, quoted from NBC News, Friday, July 26.
"This celebration is in vain," he continued.
The SNCF said it was trying to restore service after the incident by urging passengers to postpone travel plans and not go to the station to prevent crowds.
The SNCF also promised that all tickets purchased could be exchanged or returned. Passengers will also be notified of the latest information regarding this incident via message.
France's high-speed rail service was paralyzed just hours before the opening of the 2024 Paris Olympics.
French Transport Minister Patrice Vergriete said the attack was coordinated and targeted several French high-speed rail lines on Thursday, July 26 evening or Friday 26 July WIB.
"The coordinated malicious act targeted several TGV routes last night and will be very disturbing to traffic by the end of this week," he said in his post on X on Friday, July 26.
