In Marseille, France, attempts were made to disrupt the Olympic torch relay 23 times over four days. About this on social network X said the head of the country’s Ministry of Internal Affairs, Gerald Darmanin.
Darmanen said that all attempts were stopped. The Cnews television channel said that among those who tried to interfere with the relay were four opponents of the Olympics, seven pro-Palestinian activists, climate activists and migrant rights activists.
The flame of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris was lit in Greece on April 16. According to tradition, the ceremony took place in the Temple of Hera in Ancient Olympia. The fire traveled to France aboard the 120-year-old three-masted sailing ship Belem and arrived in Marseille.
The Olympic Games in Paris will be held from July 26 to August 11. Russians and Belarusians, if a number of conditions are met, will be able to compete in the individual competitions of the tournament in a neutral status.
