Overview
- In a telegram to all prefects, the interior minister instructs authorities to prevent and, if necessary, swiftly clear any attempt to block infrastructure essential to national life.
- The order names priority sites including train stations, ports, airports, major roads, public transport, fuel depots, logistics hubs, power plants, incineration and water‑treatment facilities, and the Rungis wholesale market.
- Instructions also cover universities and secondary schools, with an explicit warning that damage to public or emblematic buildings will not be tolerated and key institutions may receive static protection.
- Prefects are told to fully mobilize personnel and equipment, recall police and gendarmes as needed, and carry out systematic arrests for judicial referral.
- Security services expect dispersed actions ranging from blockades of stations, refineries, and roads to possible radar sabotage, and a note cited in coverage says participation could reach up to 100,000 people.
