French lawmakers are set to debate a bill aimed at combating gender-based and sexual violence, according to France 24.
The legislation is designed to strengthen the entire process victims go through, from reporting a crime and the subsequent investigation to receiving protection and compensation, the report said.
Deepfakes and online abuse in scope
The bill also targets online sexual abuse, including the distribution of non-consensual content and AI-generated deepfakes, according to France 24's report, which cited correspondent Claire Paccalin.
The report did not specify a timeline for the bill's passage through parliament or detail the specific penalties it proposes.
