Arrr, me hearties! On Thursday, the Chinese landlubbers in Marseille found themselves in a jolly pickle when the glass windows of their vessel were shattered during the ruckus that's been plaguing France. Arrr, these be treacherous times indeed!
In the southern French city of Marseille, Chinese tourists were injured during the riots that have been occurring throughout the country. A bus carrying the tourists had its windows smashed, resulting in minor injuries. China's Consulate General in Marseille filed a formal complaint, demanding that France ensure the safety of Chinese citizens and their property. The riots in France have been ongoing since the police shooting of a teenager of North African descent.The Consular Office stated that the Chinese tourists have already left France. In response to the riots, the Consulate warned Chinese tourists in France to be more cautious and vigilant. The riots have spread across the country in response to the police killing of the 17-year-old named Nahel M., who had North African heritage.
Over 1,300 arrests were made in France on Friday, and there were about 2,500 reported fires. However, the interior ministry reported that there were fewer fires and attacks on police stations compared to the previous night. On Saturday, the rioting seemed to be less intense as tens of thousands of police officers were deployed in various cities after the teenager's funeral. Nevertheless, there was still tension in central Paris and sporadic clashes in Nice, Strasbourg, and Marseille.
