France: Activists to conduct protest march in central Paris, July 20
Pro-Palestine activists to march from Place de Clichy to Place de la Republique in Paris, France, from 14:00 July 20.
Pro-Palestinian activists plan to conduct a protest march in central Paris from 14:00 July 20. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce Israeli participation in the Olympics and to denounce a military strike on the al-Mawasi camp. It was not immediately clear how many participants may attend or what path demonstrators will take.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely along the protesters' path. Road closures are possible between Place de Clichy and Place de la Republique. Confrontations between march participants and law enforcement officers opposed individuals, or frustrated motorists cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the protest sites as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling between Place de Clichy and Place de la Republique. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
