Some 3,000 police (bottom-right) were on the streets of central Paris today, where the protestors (pictured) pledged to bring the city to a standstill. By 11am, clouds of tea gas covered the Champs Elysee (left and inset), and especially the area close to the place de la Concorde. Running battles were taking place between mobile squads of CRS police, and the demonstrators, as objects were thrown between the two. The Champ de Mars - the field next to the Eiffel Tower – had been set aside by the Paris authorities for the demonstration, but it was ignored by the protestors.
