Tents have been erected on the banks of the Seine River, occupied by young migrants who were evicted from the Gaite Lyrique, a central Paris theatre they had occupied for months.
The eviction follows a decree issued by Paris Police Chief Laurent Nunez on March 26, 2025, which ordered the removal of migrants living on the city's quays.
This move is part of a broader effort by French authorities to tighten immigration policies, reflecting the country's rightward political shift.
The migrants were expelled from the Gaite Lyrique after having lived there for several months, and now find themselves displaced once again.
