France extends curfews after night of relative calm; prefects to decide locally
Published 23 h ago8 sourcesEvidence: Reported
French PM Sebastien Lecornu announced that local authorities will coordinate with mayors to impose additional curfews, signaling an escalation in government measures to regain control amid ongoing unrest. The scope and trigger conditions for new curfews remain unspecified, and it is unclear whether this reflects a broader security crackdown or targeted local responses.
France has imposed curfews in multiple cities, including Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Nice, and Lille, following widespread riots, looting, and arson. The interior minister admitted police 'lost control' in some areas, and President Macron faces a deepening political crisis amid calls for his resignation. The situation remains fluid, with potential for further escalation despite a recent night of calm.
