Wang Wenbin introduced that a Chinese tour group was affected by riots during their trip to Marseille, France. The bus window they were riding on was smashed, and several people were slightly injured. The Chinese Consulate General in Marseille immediately activated the consular protection emergency mechanism, assisted the travel group in reporting to the police and carrying out emergency response, and made representations to the French side. The group of tourists has already ended their trip to France ahead of schedule and returned safely. We once again remind Chinese citizens in France to closely monitor the local security situation, be cautious when going out, stay away from protest and violent conflict areas, and strengthen security measures. In case of accidents, please report to the police in a timely manner and contact the Chinese Embassy and Consulate in France for help.
