Rioting broke out next to Napoleon Bonaparte's tomb in Paris (left) today as protests erupted all over France with 84,000 anti-government Yellow Vests setting fires and vandalising buildings. There were also disturbances in Bordeaux (bottom right), Lyon and Marseille, while the local government building was attacked in Angers (top right), northwest of Paris. Protesters threw firecrackers, bottles and stones at police who used tear gas, water cannon, flash ball guns and baton charges to push them back at Les Invalides, where the body of the former French emperor and military leader lies in a sarcophagus underneath a golden dome. According to official figures, the biggest demonstration on Saturday occurred in the southern city of Toulouse, where around 10,000 people took part. The demonstration turned violent as evening fell, as protesters vandalised a bank and other shops. Eight people were injured and there were 23 arrests. π«π· #francomaidan
