French authorities tighten restrictions and ban specific protests

France 24 [en] · western europe

France is bracing for another weekend of protests, after violence erupted on the sidelines of last week's mobilisations. Paris is extending a partial curfew in parts of the city until Monday, while protests are banned altogether in the cities of Marseille and Lyon. 70,000 security personnel will be deployed on Saturday and only union demonstrations will be authorised.
