Ancient oak trees felled to rebuild the spire of Notre Dame
The first steps are being taken to rebuild the famous spire of Notre Dame Cathedral exactly as it was, before it was destroyed by fire nearly two years ago.
Around a thousand giant oak trees, in the Domaine de Berce, near Le Mans, are being cut down so they can be crafted into the new structure which will one day take its place in the Parisian skyline.

A Moroccan asylum seeker has been sentenced to life in jail for murder, with a minimum term of 45 years, at Teesside Crown Court. In October last year, 45-year-old Ahmed Alid stabbed Iranian Christian convert Javed Nouri at the house he was sharing with other asylum seekers before looking for more victims in Hartlepool town centre. He then stabbed and killed 70-year-old Terence Carney who was out for his regular early morning walk. Alid told police he had committed his crimes out of “revenge” for Israel killing children in the Palestinian conflict. Report by Jonesia.
