The owners of the "yellow jackets" are protesting against the French "police violence"
The yellow jackets are being held in the French capital for the twelfth row in a row, but this time they are protesting against police violence.
In the midst of controversy over the use of flashing balls, the yellow jackets are protesting this time against police violence, while other gatherings are expected to take place all over France.
Following the decision of the Council of State, France's highest administrative court, to allow the use of flashing balls to continue in demonstrations, the protesters, who began their movements mainly against the social and tax policy of the government, decided to organize a "major march for the wounded" in the French capital to ban flashing balls and tear gas.
He wrote in calls on the social network Facebook that the demonstrators are called to "put an end to excessive force used by the government to silence the protest," and to bring "bandages of the eye and other staining yellow jackets in red," referring to the blood.
The demonstrators in Paris, Lyon and Montpellier intend to condemn the use of flashing balls, a non-lethal shot used more than 9,200 times since the start of the protest movement, causing serious injuries, including one of the leaders of the "yellow jackets" Jerome RodrĂg.
The group of activists "to disarm them" said that 20 people were seriously injured in the eye since 17 November. The police department is conducting 116 investigations, 10 of which are seriously injured in the eye, a police source said.
The authorities counted more than 1,900 wounded demonstrators and more than 1,200 members of the security forces.
French Interior Minister Christophe Castaner admitted on Friday that the weapon could "injure" and promised to punish "abuses", but defended its use to "confront the troublemakers."
