France/Syria: Lafarge defended itself against charges of endangering its employees in Syria before the French Supreme Court on 19 September 2023. The company, since acquired by Switzerland-based Holcim, has admitted to paying ‘several million euros’ to terror groups while continuing to operate in Syria in 2013 – 2014. The court will also hear Lafarge’s appeal over charges of complicity in crimes against humanity. It will give its ruling on 7 November 2023.
