France's national rail operator, SNCF, announced on Sunday that normal train services will resume on Monday following repairs to sabotage-induced damage. The sabotage had paralyzed the rail network just before the Olympics opening ceremony, affecting tens of thousands of passengers. Three coordinated attacks on critical rail infrastructure caused extensive disruptions, especially to the west and northbound high-speed TGV services. Although no group has claimed responsibility, a statement expressing support for the attacks criticized the Olympics as a "celebration of nationalism." French authorities are investigating the incidents while maintaining heightened security during the Games.
