France: Climate activists plan to protest in Paris June 21
Climate activists plan to protest at Austerlitz Quai in Paris, France, from 18:30 June 21. Increased security likely.
Climate activists lead by Extinction Rebellion Paris plan to protest at Austerlitz Quai, Paris, from 18:30 June 21. The demonstration aims at denouncing the Flying Taxis project, ahead of the Paris Olympics that will be held in the city July 26-Aug. 11. Participation numbers will likely range from several hundred to the low thousands.
Authorities will likely deploy increased security to monitor the gathering; localized road travel and transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Violence is not expected.
Avoid the demonstration as a routine security precaution and to mitigate associated disruptions. Check for transport disruptions before beginning journeys and allow extra time for travel in the affected area late June 21. Heed instructions from security services.
