France  Several thousand people gathered for the planned climate march on
the eve of the United Nations Climate Conference (Cop21) that begins in
Paris on Monday.  The march was banned in the days following the Paris
Attacks when a State of Emergency was declared that unauthorized all public
gatherings.

In the lead up to todays events, French police using the authority gained
by the state of emergency declaration placed 24 known climate activists
under house arrest. An act against personal freedoms that would have been
illegal otherwise.

Skirting the ban on public gatherings, thousands of Parisians and activists
from around the world joined hands to form a human chain along Boulevard
Voltaire from Noon to 1 p.m. According to Agence France Presse, nearly
10,000 people took part in the human chain demonstration.

Human Chain

Following the human chain, many who participated then headed to join the
gathering at Place de la République.

Despite the protest ban and pre-detention of activists some 4000 to 5000
citizens not so willing to give up their civil liberties had made it to the
Place de la République which was entirely blocked off by an estimated 1500
police.

The gathering began to move along the avenue de la République when the
police violence began. French police deployed concussion grenades, tear gas,
pepper spray and repeatedly used baton charges on the citizens. Videos of
the violent repression show people being clubbed, directly pepper-sprayed
and some being violently detained.

Its obvious that many people have injuries from the various forms of police
violence, yet total figures are still unknown.

Currently, it has been reported that about 174 people have been detained and
another 150 people are still being kettled (surrounded) by police at Place
de la République where they have been held for hours.
