On the eve of the decision of the Constitutional Council on the pension reform project, a 12th day of mobilization will take place this Thursday, very supervised by the police.
To frame the demonstrations expected this Thursday across the country, 11,500 police and gendarmes will be mobilized, including 4,200 in Paris, according to information from BFMTV. This 12th day of mobilization against the pension reform should bring together between 400,000 and 600,000 demonstrators, according to the territorial intelligence note that we were able to consult.
Among them, the authorities anticipate in particular the arrival of “particularly determined protesters”, likely to carry out “blocking, filtering actions, against the tenure of elected officials who rejected the motion of censure” filed after 49.3.
“500 to 1000 elements at risk”
In the Paris procession, where between 40,000 and 70,000 people are expected, the information also provides for the presence of “300 to 600 yellow vests”, and “500 to 1,000 elements at risk”.
“The ultra-left movement and groups of yellow vests”, aggregating other violent elements, will again be present in the processions to try to cause disturbances to public order”, note the authorities.
Several cities including Rennes, Dijon, Brest, Toulouse, Bordeaux, Grenoble, Lyon and Lille will be particularly scrutinized for this risk of the presence of “ultra-left” elements. The yellow vests are expected in Charleville-Mézières, Caen, Valence and Épinal.
