A rally against anti-Semitism organised by French far-left party La France Insoumise (France Unbowed) is disrupted by demonstrators carrying signs reading "Touche pas à la mémoire" ("Don't touch our remembrance"), in criticism of party leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon's stance on recent events. The protest took place near the site of the former Vél d'Hiv in Paris, where Jews were infamously rounded up and detained during the second World War before being sent to camps. IMAGES
Several hundred demonstrators gather in front of the commercial court of Marseille to protest against the closure of bars and restaurants decreed by the government, in an attempt to curb the spread of the Covid-19 epidemic. They shout "Stay Open !" and "Don't close!" IMAGES
