Supporters hold up a banner featuring the portrait of Abir Moussi, a prominent opposition figure and president of the Free Destourian Party (Free Constitutional Party), during the annual ''Rights and Freedoms'' march organized by the Tunisian League for the Defense of Human Rights (LTDH) to mark the 77th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, also known as Human Rights Day, in Tunis, Tunisia, on December 13, 2025. Abir Moussi is sentenced to 12 years in prison on charges of 'assault with intent to cause chaos'. The march, held under the slogan ''Fetters Will Break Open,'' brings together demonstrators from political parties, civil society groups, and human rights organizations, denouncing what they describe as escalating repression of dissidents and critics under President Kais Saied. Participants protest the crackdown on freedoms and human rights, including restrictions on free speech and press freedom.

A 'Ecureuil' (i.e., squirrel) places a banner at the top of a tree near the Administrative Court of Appeal of Toulouse. It quotes an article of constitutional law that reads, 'Everyone must take part in the preservation and improvement of the environment'. A final hearing on the legality of the environmental authorizations for the planned highway A69 between Toulouse and Castres takes place in the Administrative Court of Appeal of Toulouse, France, on December 11, 2025. Plaintiffs against the A69 ask the court to nullify all environmental authorizations given for the A69 project. Opponents gather in front of the Administrative Court of Appeal during the hearings. They argue that this highway is not legally sound, that NGE/Atosca (builders) do not respect even their own documents about ecological compensations, and there are issues of violence against opponents and non-compliance with regulations. NGE/Atosca and the Minister of Ecology plead that this highway is 'necessary by nature' and that the first decision of the Administrative Court to scrap the authorizations is an 'anomaly'. The verdict will be given on December 30, 2025. The main association 'La Voie est Libre' (i.e., 'The Way is Free') wants the building of the highway to be stopped until all judicial decisions on the content are given. Opponents of this project say that the reprofiling of the N126 will be sufficient for the 6,000 vehicles planned per day and would cost far less money. The A69 highway will cost EUR512 million (in 2018 euros without inflation) for 54 kilometers.

'Ecureuils' place the banner 'Art. 2 of the constitutional law' between two plane trees in Vendine, France, on August 28, 2025. It reads 'Everyone must take part in the protection of the environment'. Since 3 a.m. this morning, four 'Ecureuils' (i.e., 'squirrels') from the GNSA ('National Group of Trees Watching' founded by Thomas Brail, the activist and arborist-climber) occupy two plane trees in Vendine (Haute-Garonne) to block their cutting for works on the planned A69 highway between Toulouse (Haute-Garonne) and Castres (Tarn). They deploy a banner on Article 2 of the constitutional law about preserving the environment. Initially, only two plane trees are to be cut, but now about 10 plane trees will be cut. 'Ecureuils' plan to stay until NGE/Atosca explains the necessity of the cutting and consider going on trial about these planned cuttings. The concessionaire of the A69, NGE/Atosca, repeatedly says that all trees have already been cut for the A69. The main association 'La Voie est Libre' (i.e., 'The Way is Free') and other opponents want the building of the highway to be stopped until all the justice decisions on the content are given. Opponents of this project say that the reprofiling of the N126 will be sufficient for the 6,000 vehicles planned per day and would cost far less money.
