Le Monde: Lightning rebel offensive in Syria's Aleppo, in a Middle East in full reconstruction
The Syrian civil war has intensified as anti-regime fighters have regained control of Aleppo, previously lost in 2016. A coalition led by the radical group Hayʼat Tahrir al-Sham launched a surprise offensive, capturing key government buildings and military bases.
The Syrian army was caught off guard, and Russia responded with airstrikes in Idlib. This escalation follows a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, indicating a shifting balance of power in the region. The offensive had been planned for months but accelerated amid recent conflicts.

Le Monde: Jérôme Bimbenet, biographer: 'Leni Riefenstahl aestheticized the violence of the Third Reich'
Leni Riefenstahl, a prominent filmmaker of the Nazi regime, is recognized for revolutionizing cinematic techniques in propaganda, particularly through her films "Triumph of the Will" and "Olympia." She employed innovative camera angles and aestheticized political events, influencing modern sports cinematography.
Riefenstahl's portrayal of Hitler varies; in "Olympia," he is humanized, while in "Triumph of the Will," he is depicted as a national leader. Her fascination with athleticism and the human body reflects the ideals of the German nation, yet her inclusion of Jesse Owens challenged prevailing racial theories.
