France: Arrests made as Yellow Vests rally in Nice despite demo ban
Around 100 Yellow Vests protesters gathered at Place Garibaldi in Nice on Saturday, despite a ban on demonstrations announced by the mayor of Nice.
Several protesters were filmed being detained, after minor scuffles between police and protesters occurred.
"Here on Garibaldi we have the right to protest. So, for me, today I come peacefully, I have a peace flag, saying that I am for the freedom to protest," said Genevieve Legay, a protester.
Part of the city centre was closed to traffic due to the arrival of Chinese President Xi Jinping.
