This was the sixth Saturday in a row that protests against the new COVID-19 restrictions were organized in various cities in France, including Paris.
Last Saturday, nearly 215,000 opponents of the health passes took part in demonstrations held across France.
In July, French President Emmanuel Macron announced a series of new restrictions to contain the spread of COVID-19, including a special health pass indicating that a person has either been vaccinated or has a negative test result for COVID-19.
At the end of last month, the health pass was already required in museums, theaters, movies and all public events attended by over fifty people. Starting August 9, the pass became mandatory in restaurants, bars, shopping centers, airplanes and long-distance trains.
