Major police forces deployed for national day
July 14th will be the 234th anniversary of the downfall of the Bastille fortress, and the subsequent rise of the not-so desired Republic. Since only 10 days will separate us from the worst riots in the country's history, a unique operation has been announced.
130,000 police officers and gendarmes will be mobilized on July 13 and 14. The RAID, GIGN and BRI teams will also be fully mobilized throughout the country. The deployment of Gendarmerie helicopters, drones and armored vehicles has also been authorized. Buses and streetcars will stop everywhere in France at 10pm.
