Description

In this week's episode of EURACTIV's Beyond the Byline podcast, we delve into the pressing issue of police violence in France.The country has been engulfed in clashes following the fatal police shooting of 17-year-old Nahel Merzouk.Racial profiling and police brutality are concerns in France and in some other European countries, according to the European Network Against Racism.The situation in France has further escalated with clashes between protesters and far-right supporters, while fundraisers for both Nahel's family and the police officer involved have gained significant attention.Amid this complex situation, journalists and photographers face violence from both the police and protesters, prompting Reporters Without Borders to establish a hotline and propose on-site training for journalists covering the clashes.
