On this day, 10 July 1985, the French intelligence service blew up the Greenpeace ship, Rainbow Warrior, in Aotearoa/New Zealand killing Fernando Pereira, a photographer. The ship was headed to protest against French nuclear testing. France initially denied responsibility but NZ police arrested two of its agents and charged them with murder. Eventually they were sentenced to 10 years’ prison for manslaughter, but the French government freed them after just two years. https://www.facebook.com/workingclasshistory/photos/a.296224173896073/2030987507086389/?type=3
