Law enforcement agencies are also preparing for the possible presence of up to 400 radical protesters. According to information provided by the channel, citing French Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez, calls to cause unrest at public institutions and loot shops are already circulating on social media.

The march will proceed from Place de la République in eastern Paris to Place de la Nation. This is the only route authorised by the Paris Police Prefecture.
