The essentials

Throughout France, farmers continue the movement. The Agen convoy continues to head towards Paris and should arrive in the coming hours. The Prime Minister's new announcements made yesterday did not satisfy farmers. Gérald Darmanin counted 10,000 demonstrators and 100 blocking points in the Hexagon.
