Police clear out a migrant camp in central Paris. Activists say it’s a pre-Olympics sweep
Elias Hufganel, a volunteer at a refugee camp in Paris, stated authorities aim to create a clean environment for the Olympics, avoiding the portrayal of the city as migrant-filled.
Paris police conducted an operation near schools to address security concerns, prompting the clearance of the tent camp.
Police say they cleared the tent camp for security reasons. According to human rights activists, these measures intensified before the Olympics. They call it “social cleansing.”
