In a night of unexpected chaos and unity, arrests were made and tensions ran high as hundreds of migrants suddenly descended upon the Council of State and the iconic Louvre Museum in Paris on June 20. Amidst the commotion, a powerful symbol of solidarity emerged as human rights activists formed a human chain alongside French state representatives, adorned with tricolor scarves.

The action was orchestrated by Utopia activists, who aimed to shed light on the plight of migrants and advocate for their rights. The unexpected installation of migrants at such prominent landmarks caught both authorities and onlookers by surprise, leading to a heightened atmosphere of anticipation and concern.

As the situation escalated, clashes between police and migrants ensued, resulting in several arrests. However, amidst the tension, a remarkable display of unity took place as human rights activists and state representatives joined forces to form a human chain. This symbolic gesture aimed to bridge the gap between different factions and emphasize the importance of empathy and collaboration in addressing the challenges faced by migrants.
