Police in France clashed on Saturday with anti-government protesters seeking to inject fresh momentum into demonstrations calling for social justice and the ouster of President Emmanuel Macron.
During clashes between police and protesters, officers fired tear gas to try to disperse the crowd and a firebomb wrecked an unoccupied police car. Several storefronts were vandalised and police said seven people had been detained.
According to Officials, around 2,000 (two thousand) people gathered in the centre of southern city of Montpellier.
Meanwhile, organisers claimed their numbers at closer to 5,000.
On other hand, smaller rallies took place in other cities around France, including Paris, Marseille, Rouen, Lille, Strasbourg, Dijon and Toulouse.
