PARIS: Hundreds of"yellow vest" protesters began marches in Paris on Saturday , marking the 17th straight weekend of anti-government demonstrations despite attempts by French President Emmanuel Macron to quell discontent with a nationwide series of debates.
Some demonstrators staged a"flashmob" at Paris' Charles de Gaulle airport, waving French flags and dancing in one of the terminals, television footage on BFM TV showed. Turnout has dwindled since nearly 300,000 people took part in road blockades and marches across France on Nov. 17, coming in at 39,300 last Saturday according to the interior ministry.But protesters have carried on nonetheless, with few signs of a halt in demonstrations any time soon. The latest turnout figures were not yet available.
