Despite the ceasefire between Hamas and Israel taking effect from Thursday, May 20, to Friday, May 21, numerous demonstrations in support of the Palestinian people took place on Saturday in Paris and the provinces (Lyon, Strasbourg, Lille, Toulouse, Montpellier, Saint-Etienne, and Annecy). In the capital, it was the first recognized demonstration since a banned demonstration on Saturday, May 15, which saw a significant deployment of police forces. But the prefecture of the police did not allow the organizers’ request to hold a parade between the places of the Republic and Bastille, and suggested to be satisfied with a static convergence. Another was scheduled for Sunday afternoon at the same location.

The two water cannons assembled for the ceremony on Saturday do not have to work, and the sky watches as rain falls at regular intervals for the 3,000 protesters who have gathered under the statue of the Republic. The massive deployment of the police cordon at the time of the dispersal was evident as it was unnecessary. The only incident of the afternoon was when a small group of high school students lit the Israeli flag and hoisted the Iranian flag amidst the insults from the audience.
