Students gather for anti-repression protest amid heavy police presence in Paris
PARIS, FRANCE - OCTOBER 29: Students and activists gather during an anti-repression mobilization organized by the Regional Student Coordination of Ile-de-France at the Grands Moulins campus of Paris Cite University in Paris, France, on October 29, 2026. Participants attend speeches, sit-in gatherings and activities at an activist village, while large numbers of police officers, including riot police, are deployed around the area. The gathering takes place after authorities ban a planned march towards La Sante prison, with the Paris Administrative Court upholding the prohibition. Organizers denounce police and judicial repression and call for the right to protest, the release of detained demonstrators and the dropping of charges against protesters.
