France to deploy 10,000 police ahead of Wednesday's game against Morocco

MADRID, 13 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The Government of France will mobilize 10,000 members of the Police and the Gendarmerie to anticipate possible riots due to the soccer match that will face the French soccer team against Morocco on Wednesday, in the semifinals of the World Cup in Qatar.

The French Interior Minister, Gérald Darmanin, explained this operation on Tuesday, which will have 5,000 agents in the Paris region alone, "especially in the Champs-Elysées area." This area of ​​the capital, however, will not be closed to traffic, according to BFMTV.

The Government thus anticipates possible mobilizations such as those experienced on Saturday, when the teams of France and Morocco prevailed in their respective matches in the quarterfinals. Some 170 people were detained across France, including around a hundred in Paris.
