France in chaos

For the second day in a row, President Emmanuel Macron has gone down to the underground room of Place Beauvau, the office of the Ministry of the Interior to lead a meeting of the "crisis cell" and to find a way out of a situation that seems increasingly dramatic.

Macron has denounced the "unacceptable exploitation of the death of a teenager" and has announced "additional measures" to stop the fires, looting and violence that are destroying French cities for three consecutive nights. Yesterday also brought the first victim: a 20-year-old fell from the roof of a supermarket in Normandy.

APPEAL

Macron also had an appeal "for all parents to be responsible" and keep their children at home. "It is clear that the situation we are experiencing is the result of organized violent groups, which we are arresting, but many of them are young. A third of those arrested yesterday were very young," said Macron. The most represented age group is between 14 and 18 years old.

protests

Over 471 people have been arrested overnight in France, while violent protests over the killing of a 17-year-old boy shot by police have entered their fourth night.

Protests continued into Saturday morning, with riots breaking out in several cities, French media reported, although the situation overall appeared less tense than the day before. Several shops were looted in several cities as the unrest continues.

The burial of young Nahel will take place this Saturday in Nanterre in some "discretion".

Social media videos of the scenes in Lyon showed gunfire from an automatic rifle overnight, fireworks being set off in protest and demonstrators near burning fires.

violence

On Friday evening there was an explosion in the Old Port of Marseille, but there were no casualties. While the Alcazar library in Marseille was also damaged, it was vandalized during the night.

The continued violence comes despite French police deploying 45,000 officers, special units, armored vehicles and helicopters across the country on Friday.

According to the latest report from the Ministry of Interior, 79 policemen were injured during the night riots.

In terms of material damage, there are 2,560 fires on public roads, 1,350 burned vehicles, and 234 burned or damaged objects.

He also notes that 31 police stations, 16 municipal police stations and 11 gendarmerie barracks are targeted.
