Paris to go back under evening curfew as COVID-19 cases rise - govt

The French government will reimpose an evening curfew on Paris, and possibly the greater Paris Ile-de-France region, to tackle the country's worsening COVID-19 figures, government spokesman Gabriel Attal said on Tuesday.

"We are going to reinstate a curfew on Paris, and perhaps the Ile-de-France. The Interior Ministry will specify the details later in the day and an edict will be issued," Attal told BFM TV.
