Second day of "celebrations" of a year of protests by the French yellow vests, with the police who have already announced a ban on demonstrating in the Champs-Elysées. Several dozen yellow vests, which after a difficult day yesterday in Paris returned to peaceful demonstration in different parts of the capital, "invaded" the Galeries Lafayette department stores, reaching the first floor. The area was surrounded by police and the warehouses were immediately evacuated without incident. The gesture, announced on the eve, was a symbolic demonstration against what they had called "a temple of consumption". Yesterday in Paris new devastations were recorded and even today there are fears of accidents and vandalism. Yesterday protesters targeted the police with police and objects and responded with tear gas. Throughout France, 28,000 people demonstrated, of which 4,700 in Paris; 105 people stopped.
