French Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu stated that France may implement new curfews in certain areas if necessary, according to AFP. He indicated that targeted curfews contributed to a calmer night, following several instances of peaceful demonstrations escalating into violent riots and looting across multiple cities in France. Further restrictions could be introduced as early as this evening, Lecornu confirmed. These decisions regarding potential curfews will be made locally by the prefects, in collaboration with the mayors. The government is responding to ongoing disturbances and seeking to restore order. The situation is being assessed to determine where additional measures are required.
