Video. French authorities clear migrant camps along Seine in Paris
Briefly

With the conclusion of the winter truce, Paris authorities initiated operations to clear migrant camps along the Seine, removing around 100 tents. This action has drawn criticism from NGOs like Utopia 56, which argue that such evictions only contribute to the cycle of displacement for migrants. Previously, similar operations have occurred, including a significant eviction in March of 450 young migrants. The actions of French authorities highlight the ongoing struggle faced by many displaced individuals in search of safety and stability amidst harsh conditions.
The operation marked the end of the winter truce, with authorities clearing around 100 tents from the Seine's riverbanks, highlighting the ongoing migrant crisis.
NGO Utopia 56 condemned the evictions, claiming they trap migrants in a perpetual cycle of displacement, failing to offer them long-term solutions.
This operation is reminiscent of a similar one in March, where 450 young migrants were removed from an occupied cultural centre in Paris.
Critics argue that forced evictions and relocations without adequate alternatives only exacerbate the hardships faced by marginalized migrant populations.
