抢劫和破坏行为在法国蔓延开来,因为生活成本抗议演变为暴力冲突,爱马仕、路易威登、劳力士和苹果等品牌的门店成为目标。
Looting and vandalism spread across France as cost-of-living protests turned violent, with stores belonging to Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Rolex and Apple among the targets.
周六,法国各地的奢侈品店面成为抢劫目标,爱马仕、路易威登、劳力士和苹果等品牌的门店在生活成本抗议升级为暴力冲突、纵火和破坏行为中被洗劫一空。
Luxury storefronts became targets of looting across France on Saturday, with stores belonging to Hermes, Louis Vuitton, Rolex and Apple among the businesses ransacked as cost-of-living protests escalated into violent clashes, arson and vandalism.
在波尔多,抢劫者袭击了繁忙的圣凯瑟琳购物街上的一些最知名零售品牌,包括苹果和路易威登。法新社报道称,蒙面人闯入多家商店,将一条主要购物街变成了破坏现场。
In Bordeaux, looters struck some of the most recognisable retail names, including Apple and Louis Vuitton, along the busy Rue Sainte-Catherine shopping street. AFP reported that masked individuals broke into several shops, turning a major shopping stretch into a scene of destruction.
袭击行为并未局限于波尔多。法新社报道称,里尔的一家苹果专卖店也被洗劫,而根据地区新闻媒体《马里蒂马》的报道,马赛的一家爱马仕精品店和劳力士专卖店也成为被袭击的商家之一。
The attacks were not confined to Bordeaux. An Apple Store in Lille was also looted, AFP reported, while a Hermes boutique and Rolex in Marseille were among the businesses targeted, according to regional news outlet Maritima.
在巴黎,蒙面示威者破坏商店和餐馆,点燃停放的汽车,并与警方发生冲突。随着骚乱威胁到商业区,奢侈品牌迪奥在其旗舰店外部署了自己的安保人员。
In Paris, masked demonstrators vandalised shops and restaurants, set parked cars ablaze and clashed with police. With the unrest threatening commercial districts, luxury retailer Dior deployed its own security personnel outside its flagship store.
在破坏现场,一名男子爬上了巴黎金字塔广场上的贞德雕像,这一景象在骚乱蔓延的背景下显得格外罕见。
Amid the scenes of vandalism, an individual climbed onto the statue of Joan of Arc at Place des Pyramides in Paris, an unusual sight against the backdrop of spreading disorder.
另一起事件中,一名痛苦的店主被拍下视频,她恳求法国的骚乱者不要抢劫她的店铺,但人群无视她的恳求,在进入受损商店时将她推开。
In another incident, a distressed shop owner was filmed pleading with rioters in France not to loot her store, but the crowd ignored her pleas and pushed her aside as they entered the damaged shop.
视频中,这位女子被听到问:“你们为什么这么做?”并喊叫:“这不是你们的事业。”随着抢劫者继续洗劫店铺,画面随后似乎显示旁观者在欢呼,蒙面骚乱者双手抱着被盗物品离开。
In the video, the woman is heard asking, “Why are you doing this?” and shouting, “This is not the cause,” as the looters continue ransacking the store. The footage then appears to show onlookers cheering as masked rioters leave with their arms full of stolen goods.
暴力事件远远蔓延至高端购物区之外。多家企业,包括超市、药店、服装店和电子产品零售商,在法国多个城市被洗劫一空。
The violence extended well beyond high-end shopping districts. Dozens of businesses, including supermarkets, pharmacies, clothing stores and electronics retailers, were looted across several French cities.
公共建筑也成为袭击目标。在里昂,一处旅游办公室被纵火;而在马赛和里尔,市政厅被闯入并遭到破坏。
Public buildings were also targeted. In Lyon, a tourist office was set on fire, while town halls in Marseille and Lille were broken into and vandalised.
根据该地区最高官员的说法,在利摩日,蒙面抗议者闯入市政厅并引发火灾,导致这座历经140多年的建筑大部分被毁。
In Limoges, masked protesters broke into the town hall and started a fire that largely destroyed the more than 140-year-old building, according to the region's top official.
法国总理塞巴斯蒂安·勒科尔努表示,超过1200人被捕,150名警务人员受伤。警方使用催泪瓦斯和水炮驱散抗议者,因为冲突、抢劫和火灾在多个城市持续蔓延。
More than 1,200 people were arrested and 150 police personnel were injured, French Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu said. Police deployed tear gas and water cannon to disperse protesters as clashes, looting and fires continued across several cities.
此次骚乱发生在关于生活成本、政府支出和公共服务的示威活动升级为广泛无序之际。据法国内政部称,全国约有55万人参加示威,其中巴黎估计有11万人。
The unrest came as demonstrations over the cost of living, government spending and public services escalated into widespread disorder. According to France's Interior Ministry, around 550,000 people took part in demonstrations nationwide, including an estimated 110,000 in Paris.
法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙谴责了暴力行为,并警告肇事者将面临法律后果。
French President Emmanuel Macron condemned the violence and warned that those responsible would face legal consequences.
“实施破坏、袭击行政办公室或企业、或进行抢劫的人——即使是在我们的市政厅——将会被起诉和惩处,”马克龙周六晚间在X上写道。
“Those who carried out vandalism, attacked administrative offices or businesses, or carried out looting -- even in our town halls, will be prosecuted and punished,” Macron wrote on X late Saturday.
勒科尔努也批评了他所说的“极端强度的暴力”在这些示威中的发生。
Lecornu also criticised what he described as “violence of extreme intensity” during the demonstrations.
