Yellow vest protests: Huge police response in Paris

Tensions between police and protesters were high as Paris saw a resurgence of the yellow vest movement that started in November.

Police arrested at least 39 demonstrators, the majority of whom did not wear the trademark fluorescent jackets to avoid visibility.

A huge security operation was in force to avoid the protesters clashing with a climate change march and France's annual Heritage Day.
