France: Activists to demonstrate in Paris Sept. 6
Activists to protest at 1 Place du Palais Royal in Paris, France, from 13:00 Sept. 6. Heightened security, transport disruptions likely.
Activists plan to protest at 1 Place du Palais Royal in Paris from 13:00 Sept. 6. The purpose of the demonstration is to denounce the potential expulsion from France of an imam of a mosque in Pessac. The number of people who would attend the demonstration was not immediately clear.
Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Low-level confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers or ideologically opposed individuals cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the protest as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling in the affected area, and consider taking alternative routes to circumvent the vicinity of the demonstration and any related disruptions. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers.
