Great security reinforcements in France ahead of National Day after the recent riots

 On July 14, the French government mobilized over 130,000 police, gendarmes, and special and armored forces to contain the disturbances that typically coincide with the celebrations of the French National Day.

Following the murder of a seventeen-year-old man who was shot by a police officer during a traffic check in Nanterre, close to Paris, on June 27, last year, the interior minister, Gerald Darmanin, turned to the same security setup that was used during the riots that enveloped France.

An "extraordinary deployment" of 45,000 police officers and gendarmes would be authorized every evening from Thursday until Saturday morning, according to a French minister.

The minister announced that special police and gendarmerie personnel, as well as helicopters and gendarmerie armored vehicles, will be deployed for the first time on National Day in critical towns.

The police commissioner of Paris, Laurent Nunes, announced that there would be "approximately" 10,000 security personnel present in the city and its neighboring districts.

Every evening, about 40,000 firefighters will be on standby to put out garbage bin fires as well as other fires in vehicles and structures.

  Emmanuel Macron, the president of France, pledged to act "with the greatest firmness" in the event of accidents when visiting Lithuania.

After the NATO conference, he assured reporters, "In the event of infractions, we will intervene with the greatest vigor so that all our citizens can live in peace.

According to a security source, surveillance will be stepped up, particularly in Paris and its suburbs, the north, and the Lyon area in the country's eastern heartland.

Except in a few rare circumstances, bus and tram services will end early in the evening in every region of the nation.

The recent violence that shocked the nation led towns and cities to decide to cancel the fireworks show.

On Friday morning in Paris, the customary military parade is held, and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is invited as a prominent partner of France.

The capital's Eiffel Tower hosts its customary nightly fireworks display. The French National Orchestra will conduct a symphonic concert at the Champs-de-Mars Park with a focus on the concept of brotherhood.

The authorities announced that they intended to carry out the directive, which prohibits the acquisition of explosives until Saturday. Rioters frequently used explosives to attack security personnel or set buildings on fire.

Cracker manufacturers, however, dispute the efficacy of this ban, claiming that it fuels a "virtual black market," especially on social media platforms like Snapchat and Telegram.

To maintain peace, the Interior Minister announced on Wednesday that all protests "directly related to riots," as well as the one against police brutality planned for this coming Saturday in Paris, would be prohibited.

In France in 2002, 807 persons were detained in connection with incidents that happened outside of the National Day celebrations. According to the Interior Minister at the time, 55 security personnel were hurt, and 749 cars were set on fire.
