    Commemoration march for Nahel - Nanterre

    Commemoration march for Nahel - Nanterre

    People hold a sign Allah y rahmo Nahel (may he rest in peace Nahel) during a commemoration march (marche blanche) for Nahel, in the Pablo Picasso area of the Parisian suburb of Nanterre, on June 29, 2023. Violent protests broke out in France in the early hours of June 29, 2023, as anger grows over the police killing of a teenager, with security forces arresting 150 people in the chaos that saw balaclava-clad protesters burning cars and setting off fireworks. Nahel M., 17, was shot in the chest at point-blank range in Nanterre in the morning of June 27, 2023, in an incident that has reignited debate in France about police tactics long criticised by rights groups over the treatment of people in low-income suburbs, particularly ethnic minorities.
