On Tuesday, the police targeted a 17-year-old African-Moroccan youth named Nael in Paris and fired shots at him. He lost his life at the scene. The police accused the young man of violating traffic laws. And it was for this reason that shots were fired.


Following that incident, the fire of violence spread throughout the country. The flames of that fire have engulfed several government buildings, structures, and libraries in the country.

After Nael's death, numerous allegations of discrimination and injustice against the government have emerged, leading thousands of people in the country to take to the streets. Many shops and houses are being set on fire. The police administration is being attacked.


The violent incidents in France have been going on for the fifth day on Saturday. Despite various measures taken by the government, the situation has not changed.


According to official accounts, angry individuals set fire to nearly 500 buildings in the country on Thursday night alone. Almost two thousand cars have been burned. In addition to this, on Thursday, fires were ignited in about 4,000 separate locations across France. Allegations of targeting the police have also been raised in various places.


The grand library of the city of Marseille, one of the largest libraries in the country, has suffered from the fire of violence. After the library was set on fire, a significant portion of the books turned to ashes.


What does the Emmanuel Macron government say about this incident in France? President Macron has condemned the killing of the young man. However, the government holds video games and social media responsible for this situation.


According to the government, a majority of the protesters in the country are young people. Therefore, President Macron has sent a message to parents urging them to keep their children away from violence.


According to a report by The Guardian, Macron held a meeting on Friday regarding the security situation in France. He claimed that violence has spread in France due to "video games."


Macron's claim is that protesters believe they are on a path of a video game. They do what they please because of their addiction to video games. He also claimed that due to the influence of video games, the youth society has become ignorant and involved in this incident.


In addition to video games, Macron holds TikTok and Snapchat responsible for inciting violence in society.


According to Macron, social media platforms like Snapchat and TikTok have sown the seeds of violence in France. The government has already issued instructions to remove sensitive content related to violence from those social media platforms.


Macron said, "We are witnessing how violence is spreading, and there have been several discussions and debates on social media platforms like Snapchat and TikTok. Due to the presence of social media discussions, a section of the youth in society has lost contact with reality and decided to walk the path of violence."
