riot police and soldiers are on high alert to prevent a repeat of looting on the famous avenue in paris yellow various protesters are rallying for the nineteenth consecutive weekend and they've been banned from the following last saturday's destruction the government's one protest says a severe response if there is more violence joins us now live from paris david tell us about the situation where you are and how does today's demonstration compare with previous weekends. yes we're actually at the sekret mart there's been a peaceful galavis rally here a few speeches it's now dispersing and so far no no violent instance that we know of inside paris six thousand police officers have been deployed and troops have been guarding public buildings to give more resources to the police and we understand from the interior ministry that there were eight thousand or so
1:04 am
protesters across france and three thousand here in paris now those figures are much down on what we saw last weekend but there have been clashes across france so peaceful so far in paris but there have been clashes in the lead on him on a in toulouse and nice no sign yet that those new zero tolerance tactics by the police are working in the rest of france so they're trying them here they might extend them to other cities as a result of what we've seen today outside of paris but essentially now that the yellow vests have dispersed from this area the police will still be on high alert and on standby in case a then try and break into the no go zone at the seans elisei or indeed if the the and it gets a while to radicals decide to take part once again but this so far is an extraordinary

1:06 am
fair to put soldiers in that position to have to try and fight back protest is that's why president emanuel mark ronson cision to include the army in the protective to choose today has been so controversial the last time they were employed on the mainland of france or was way back in one hundred forty seven during a miners' strike and five people were killed during clashes there so it's a very sensitive topic but at the moment there have been no incidents at all here in paris have been a handful of the rest something like fifty one so far a lot of people have been searched and and made has been made sure they don't have any weapons or missiles but at the moment so far in paris it's fine but it's not the case in the rest of france there have been clashes thank you for that david chase her reporting there live from paris activists in chile are expected to hold protests against our visits by president about an hour off brazil his meeting his
