The cuts would affect some five percent of overall staff positions in the Paris-based world news agency. Chief executive Fabrice Fries announced the plan at a meeting of the agency's governing board. He said the measures would not include compulsory layoffs. Instead, 160 retiring staff will not be replaced, while the number of new employees over the period will be limited to 35. The cuts will be spread over the editorial, technical and administrative departments.
The measures are part of what Fries called a "transformation plan" which aims to balance the agency's books by 2021. AFP management says that if it does not rein in costs, the agency's operating deficit will swell to 90 million euros ($104 million) over the next five years. It aims to cut costs by 16.5 million euros in 2023, mostly by reducing staff numbers.
Fries took over as chief executive in April after his predecessor resigned. He has vowed to boost sales by 30 million euros over five years, chiefly by investing in video and photo production.
AFP employs nearly 2,300 people in 151 countries.

- «Джей Келли» — новый фильм Ноа Баумбаха (и снова слабый) . Это история актера-неудачника, которого играет Джордж Клуни. Фигура реального исполнителя явно затмевает здесь самого персонажа - https://meduza.io/feature/2025/12/04/dzhey-kelli-novyy-film-noa-baumbaha-i-snova-slabyy (Meduza – All News (eng))
На Netflix выходит «Джей Келли» — новый фильм Ноа Баумбаха. После успешных «Милой Фрэнсис» и «Брачной истории» режиссер столкнулся с чередой творческих неудач (за исключением сценария к «Барби») — и «Джей Келли» еще одна из них. Главный герой, которого играет Джордж Клуни, по замыслу должен был предстать любимцем публики, переживающим кризис, но личность реального актера настолько интереснее личности Джея Келли, что фильм просто разваливается. Самая сильная актерская работа в картине, впрочем, не у Клуни, а у Адама Сэндлера, сыгравшего помощника суперзвезды. Подробнее о картине рассказывает кинокритик Антон Долин.
- «Загнать власть в капкан собственных законов». 60 лет назад сын Сергея Есенина и еще несколько десятков человек устроили акцию протеста в центре Москвы. Так началась история диссидентского движения в СССР - https://meduza.io/feature/2025/12/05/zagnat-vlast-v-kapkan-sobstvennyh-zakonov (Meduza – All News (eng))
60 лет назад в Москве произошло событие, о котором в советских газетах почти не писали, но которое стало одним из поворотных моментов для появления правозащитного движения. Несколько десятков человек вышли на Пушкинскую площадь требовать не смены власти и не политических реформ, а соблюдения государством собственной Конституции. Организатором акции стал математик и поэт Александр Вольпин, решивший впервые в открытой форме напомнить власти о праве граждан на гласный суд. Митинг длился всего несколько минут и был быстро разогнан, но его последствия оказались куда значительнее самого события. «Медуза» вспоминает, как в стране, где публичные выступления десятилетиями подавлялись, возникла первая попытка открытого протеста — и почему именно с нее началось диссидентское движение в СССР.

3 декабря 2025 года российские пользователи начали жаловаться на проблемы с доступом к Roblox — популярной онлайн-платформе с десятками миллионов игр, которые могут создавать сами геймеры.

При этом претензии к Roblox есть не только в России. Власти многих стран считают, что администрация сервиса не прикладывает достаточных усилий для модерации неподобающего контента. «Медуза» рассказывает, как на блокировку отреагировало российское сообщество Roblox и действительно ли эта платформа опасна для детей.

И попал из протестного 2020-го, где он был популярным политическим блогером, собиравшимся баллотироваться в президенты Беларуси, в мрачный 2025-й, где он «первый джентльмен» при своей жене, лидере белорусской оппозиции Светлане Тихановской. Когда Сергея задержали, Светлана была домохозяйкой, которая пошла на президентские выборы, чтобы поддержать мужа. Когда он вышел, она превратилась в главное лицо белорусских демократических сил, с командой советников и обширными связями на Западе. Тихановский, который пытается нащупать для себя отдельную нишу в политике, уже не раз публично критиковал офис жены. Рассказываем о новом этапе этого противостояния.

Josh Edelson, independent photographer based in San Francisco, California, has been working with AFP since 2012. “ 10 years covering wildfires in California, I've never seen anything like what this year brought. The new normal now seems to be that every fire season brings a new surprise”, he tells AFP.
His coverage for AFP of the “megafires” in northern California makes him one of three photographers preselected for the “Covering Climate Now Journalism Awards.”. These prizes are awarded in the name of the “Covering Climate Now” coalition of more than 450 media worldwide, including AFP. Names of the winners will be announced in early October.

AFP’s special package is anchored to the September 23 UN Climate Summit in New York, and will cover the September 20 rallies and marches worldwide by young people demanding decisive action on global warming. In parallel, experts from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) gather in Monaco to release a special Report on the Ocean and Cryosphere on 25 September. A draft of the report obtained exclusively by AFP warns that rising sea – even in a world that warms by no more than two degrees Celsius – could displace 280 million of people around the world. AFP’s global team is primed to cover this planetary event, and will deliver reports and stories from Bolivia, Uganda, France, Mumbai, the United States, and other locations. Reporting on major events will be broadcast via live video.
“AFP is making the Future of the Planet a major editorial priority. The transformation of our environment is a vital story that is having a dramatic impact on the lives of people across the globe.

Several photos show a room with a dentist chair and masks hanging on the wall. The New York Times reported that Epstein’s last girlfriend was a dentist who shared an office with one of his shell companies. The videos appear to be a walk-through of the property.
