France Builds High-Security Prison in Amazon to Combat Crime

France is building a super secure prison deep in the Amazon rainforest in French Guiana.

It's like a high-tech jail for the worst criminals, like drug lords, to stop them from running their gangs.

This new prison, set to open by 2028, will block cell phones and have strong security.

It's part of France's plan to fight organized crime, which is causing problems in existing prisons.

By isolating criminals in a remote location, the government hopes to cut them off from the outside world.

The goal is to prevent them from controlling illegal activities from behind bars and to disrupt their criminal networks.
