Migrants and activists continue to rally at Paris’s Place de la Republique on Tuesday, November 24, to protest the country’s refugee situation following last week’s evacuation of the Saint-Denis migrant camp. On Monday, November 23, hundreds of Parisian residents showed up to support the cause by installing tents on the square. Scuffles erupted as the officers forcibly removed the tents. On November 17, a police operation dislodged 2,500 refugees from the camp located in the north of Paris. Around 800 refugees remain without a lodging solution, according to the pro-migrant activist group Utopia 56.
