Activists of the “Yellow Jackets” movement are back on the streets tomorrow to start a series of movements and demonstrations in Paris and other French cities, after a summer break.
Almost two years after the birth of this protest movement, rallies were announced in the provinces of Marseille, Toulouse, Lyon, Lille, Nantes, Nice, Bordeaux and Strasbourg, in addition to the capital.
Protesters from the Paris region were called to gather on the Champs-Elysées, the squares of La Bourse, Gramm and Saint-Pierre, at the foot of the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Montmartre.
The Paris police chief, Didier Laallmann, prohibited “any gathering of people who claim to be part of the” zero jackets “movement, given the risk of disturbing public order” in various parts of the capital from 6:00 p.m. to Saturday (16:00 GMT).
And two demonstrations that were going to pass through the Champs Elysees were prohibited.
Police expect “between 4 and 5 thousand protesters to gather in Paris, including a thousand people who are likely to be violent.”
In total, 2,300 people indicated that they intend to participate in the rally on the Champs Elysees, and 7,000 expressed interest in it, according to the event’s Facebook page.
The “Zero Jackets” movement, which was born on November 17, 2018, against the elites and which fights for greater financial and social justice, seeks a new beginning after the first year that was marked by violent demonstrations that saw buildings and businesses burned .
