French cities impose curfews on children after drug violence
French cities like Nîmes are dealing with drug-related violence, prompting curfews for children to protect them. Authorities aim to prevent minors from being exposed to crime and contain escalating tensions linked to drug trafficking. The curfews, in place from 21:00 to 06:00, are part of broader efforts to curb drug violence, with measures including extra police deployments and crackdowns on drug gangs.
