Paris police break up migrant camp amid scuffles

Scuffles and clashes broke out at a square in central Paris when police dismantled a new migrant camp overnight.

Several hundred homeless migrants and activists were at the makeshift camp in Place de la République, which had been set up after they were evacuated from another migrant camp, without being relocated.

French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin called the scenes "shocking" and ordered an inquiry into the police action.
