PARIS (Reuters) - Night-time protests across France over the past few days by ultra-right militants chanting "Islam out of Europe" have been fanned by last week's rioting in Dublin, a French intelligence source and far-right Telegram communications indicate.
The demonstrations in protest at the fatal Nov. 19 stabbing of a teenager were an attempt by the far-right "to convince the French public that immigration is the cause of crime," far-right expert and political scientist Jean-Yves Camus said.
