In response to town hall fires, commercial looting, and assaults, the mayor and municipal council of Le Grau-du-Roi are calling for a republican gathering this Monday, October 19th at 12:30 PM on Parvis Etienne Murrut.

In the face of town hall and public building fires, as well as commercial looting, the mayor and his municipal council of Le Grau-du-Roi invite the public to a republican gathering. This event responds to the call from the Association of Mayors of France (AMF) and will take place on Monday, October 19th at 12:30 PM on the Parvis Etienne Murrut.
The AMF strongly condemns these assaults and vandalism, whose violence has crossed an unacceptable threshold, occurring during demonstrations that otherwise respected public order. The association expresses its full solidarity with the mayors, their teams, as well as the residents and shopkeepers of the affected communes, such as Limoges, Marseille, Lille, Bordeaux, Calais, and Grenoble, among others.
The Association of Mayors of France also expresses its gratitude to law enforcement and emergency service personnel for their management of these events.
