S&P 500 Today (Dec. 12, 2025): Index Slides From Record High as Broadcom and Oracle Rattle the AI Trade

France Lumpy Skin Disease Outbreak: Farmers Block Roads as Mass Cattle Culls Expand in Occitanie

France’s battle against lumpy skin disease—a fast-spreading viral infection that affects cattle but does not infect humans—took a dramatic turn on Friday, December 12, 2025, as police clashed with farmers trying to prevent the slaughter of entire herds and tractor convoys blocked major roads across the southwest.
