Paris is a mixture of celebration and conflict


The BBC’s Paris correspondent James Waterhouse reports from the Champs de Mars in the French capital on Sunday as fans salute Paris-Saint Germain (PSG) players after their Champions League win.

But Saturday’s festivities were marred by the deployment of thousands of police to quell the violence, which disrupted public services and left 219 people injured.

Eight people are in critical condition following clashes between soccer fans and police, French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said.

French authorities have announced that 780 people have been arrested after clashes in Paris.
