- A fatal cliff collapse in Biarritz, France, on Wednesday night killed one diver and another remains missing, prompting an urgent search operation.
- The incident occurred around 8:20 p.m. near the lighthouse when a large section of the coastline gave way, impacting three divers at the cliff's base.
- One diver managed to escape uninjured and was assisted by emergency teams, while search operations were immediately launched for the other two.
- Emergency services later recovered the body of a female diver, and efforts to locate the second missing person resumed on Thursday.
- Officials have established a 300-meter exclusion zone around the affected cliff, prohibiting public access, swimming, and boating due to the ongoing risk of further collapse, with previous collapses noted in 2008 and 2018.
