Partial curfews imposed in several French cities, including Paris, Lyon, Lille and Nice, have been extended following violence and looting during “Yellow Vest” protests, APA reports.
Mass demonstrations against rising living costs and fuel prices have been accompanied by violence and looting, prompting authorities to tighten security nationwide.
The restrictions on nighttime movement will remain in place in certain areas of major cities. The government is holding crisis meetings to bring the situation under control.
Hundreds of people suspected of involvement in protest violence have been detained. Extensive investigations have also been launched into damage to properties.
The restrictions are expected to remain in force for some time.
