On Monday, Paris police imposed night-time curfews in two areas of the French capital, striving to prevent any further escalation of violence.

巴黎警方於週一在法國首都兩個區域實施夜間宵禁,竭力防範暴力事件進一步升級。

This followed a weekend that saw the worst rioting France had witnessed in years, during which town halls, other public buildings and thousands of businesses across the country were targeted in attacks.

此前,一個週末爆發了法國多年來最嚴重的騷亂,市政廳、其他公共建築以及全國數千家企業均淪為襲擊目標。

A statement issued by the Paris police asserted that the purpose of the order was to safeguard "people and property from violence and robbery."

巴黎警方的聲明宣稱,該命令之目的在於保障「人員和財產免遭暴力和搶劫」。

The curfew stipulates that no person may enter or remain in the Place de la République — the very site where riots erupted on Saturday — or in the Les Halles shopping district, which has been subjected to sustained looting.

宵禁規定,任何人不得進入或逗留於共和國廣場(即週六爆發騷亂之地)以及萊阿勒購物區(該區持續遭受搶劫)。

The curfew will take effect from 11 p.m. on Monday until 6 a.m. on Tuesday; at the same time, the Paris police have stated that, as of 8 p.m., all gatherings and demonstrations are prohibited.

宵禁將自週一晚上11時起生效,至週二早上6時止;與此同時,巴黎警方表示,自晚上8時起,集會與示威活動一概在禁止之列。

At the very start of Monday, Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu had already called for the imposition of a "very limited" and "localised" curfew.

週一伊始,總理塞巴斯蒂安·勒科爾努即曾籲請施行「非常有限」且「局部」之宵禁。

In northern France, local authorities have imposed a curfew on children and adolescents under the age of 18 in several cities, including Lille; the measure took effect on Monday and runs from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. the following morning over the next two days.

在法國北部,地方當局針對包括里爾在內的多個城市,對未滿18歲的兒童及青少年實施宵禁,該措施自週一起,於接下來兩日的晚間8時至翌日清晨6時生效。

Nice, in the French Riviera, has likewise imposed a nighttime curfew on minors, effective from 9 p.m.

法國里維埃拉地區的尼斯亦對未成年人實施自晚間9時起生效的夜間宵禁。

Lecornu defended the police's handling of the riots, saying, "Despite scenes of serious violence and widespread property damage, it is a miracle that no one died."

勒科爾努為警方對騷亂的處理進行了辯護,稱「儘管出現了嚴重的暴力場面和廣泛的財產損失,但沒有人死亡,這是一個奇蹟。」

He stated that the specific details of the curfew would be announced later on Monday, following consultations with the mayor.

他表示,宵禁的具體細節將於週一較晚時分與市長磋商後予以公佈。

France's mass protests have repeatedly been tarnished by fringe acts of violence, with ostensibly peaceful marches ultimately degenerating into clashes with the police.

法國的大規模抗議活動屢遭邊緣化的暴力行徑所玷污,原本和平的遊行最終演變為與警察的衝突。

Saturday's unrest harks back to the riots that erupted in 2023 after a teenager was fatally shot by police — a period during which the authorities imposed local curfews — as well as to the violence witnessed during the Yellow Vest movement, which began in 2018 in response to fuel prices and broader economic grievances.

週六的騷亂令人回想起2023年一名青少年遭警察致命槍擊後所爆發的騷亂——彼時當局曾實施地方宵禁——以及始於2018年、因燃油價格及更廣泛經濟不滿所引發的黃背心運動期間的暴力事件。

The Prime Minister's directive was issued after the Interior Minister, Laurent Nunez, tendered his resignation on Sunday.

總理的指示,係在內政部長洛朗·努涅斯於週日請辭之後所發出。

However, President Emmanuel Macron declined to accept his resignation, "given the need for continuity in the command of law enforcement under the current circumstances," as stated in a declaration from Macron's office on Monday.

然而,總統埃馬紐埃爾·馬克龍拒絕其辭職,「鑑於當前局勢下執法指揮工作有持續之必要」,馬克龍辦公室於週一之聲明中作如是表示。

The statement said he instructed Nunez to "take all necessary measures to ensure full transparency regarding the failures in planning and intelligence-gathering that allowed the violence to occur."

聲明稱,他指示努涅斯「採取一切必要措施,確保對致使暴力發生的規劃與情報收集方面的疏失保持完全透明。」

Macron also urged that "a new policing strategy be introduced on the ground as soon as possible", with a view to curbing the violence.

馬克龍亦敦促「盡快在實地引入新的警務策略」,以期遏止暴力。

On Sunday night, groups set fire to rubbish bins, bicycles and other items in the streets of Paris, Lyon, Marseille and other cities, and looted businesses.

週日夜間,團體於巴黎、里昂、馬賽及其他城市街頭縱火焚燒垃圾桶、自行車與其他物品,並劫掠商家。

This followed violence that had already erupted on Saturday during nationwide protests against the rising cost of living and poor school conditions.

此前,週六全國範圍內針對生活成本攀升與學校條件惡劣的抗議活動中已爆發暴力事件。

At least 2,400 people were arrested across the country.

全國至少2400人遭逮捕。

On Monday, the authorities estimated that at least three thousand businesses had been damaged or looted in several cities.

當局於週一作出估算,指至少三千家企業在若干城市遭到破壞或劫掠。

In Marseille, the prefect ordered a ban on any protests or other forms of assembly between noon and 8 p.m. on Monday.

在馬賽,省長下令禁止於週一正午至晚上八時期間舉行任何抗議或其他形式之集會。

"The reason I tendered my resignation is that I must bear responsibility for everything that is currently unfolding," Núñez said on Radio France Internationale.

「我之所以遞交辭呈,是因為我須對當前正在發生的一切承擔責任,」努涅斯於法國國際廣播電台表示。

"The real crux now lies in ensuring that situations of this kind do not recur. … We plainly stand in urgent need of anticipating with far greater precision the kind of mobilisation that is currently taking shape."

「如今真正的癥結在於確保此類情況不再重演。……我們顯然亟需更為精準地預判正在醞釀成形的那類動員。」

Núñez attributed the violence to "marauding bands of troublemakers and looters" as well as "far-left activists", and stated that police tactics urgently needed to be recalibrated to counter "highly mobile groups".

努涅斯將暴力歸咎於「成群結隊的麻煩製造者和搶劫者」以及「極左翼活動分子」,並表示警方策略亟需針對「極具流動性的群體」作出調整。

The authorities stated that a group numbering several hundred sought to confront the police and targeted public buildings, including city halls and other public offices.

當局表示,一個為數數百人的團體謀求與警方抗衡,並以公共建築為目標,涵蓋市政廳及其他公共辦公場所。

Núñez conceded that by Saturday the authorities had already "lost control" in several major cities.

努涅斯承認,當局於週六在若干主要城市已然「失去了控制」。

Núñez said, "When hundreds of businesses have been plundered, you simply cannot look shopkeepers in the eye and claim that we have not lost control in certain major cities."

「當數百家企業慘遭劫掠之際,你著實無法直視店主的眼睛,聲稱我們在某些主要城市並未失去控制,」努涅斯說道。

The 19th-century town hall in Limoges, in central France, was engulfed by flames, causing its roof to collapse; the building was almost entirely destroyed and reduced to a scene of utter ruin.

坐落於法國中部利摩日的19世紀市政廳遭烈焰吞噬,致使屋頂坍塌,該建築幾近全毀,淪為一片廢墟。

On Monday, cleanup crews, joined by firefighters, set about clearing the shattered glass and other debris scattered across the streets of Paris, sweeping it all away.

週一,清理人員偕同消防員著手清除巴黎街道上四散的碎玻璃與其他殘骸,將之滌蕩一空。

Uri Zaguri, the proprietor of a video game shop near the Place de la République in Paris, stated that although he had closed his premises on Saturday afternoon, he subsequently witnessed looters forcing their way in via his surveillance cameras.

巴黎共和國廣場附近一家電子遊戲店的店主烏里·扎古里表示,他雖已於週六下午關閉店面,惟其後透過監控攝像頭目睹搶劫者強行闖入。

"A constant stream of people was coming and going.

「往來出入者絡繹不絕。

Even when I called the police, they told me not to intervene, claiming they would send officers, yet they never showed up — which is another issue altogether," Zagouri said.

即便我報了警,他們也囑咐我不要干預,聲稱會派人前來,卻始終未曾露面——這又是另一樁問題了,」扎古里說道。

Jordan Bardella, the chairman of the far-right National Rally party, delivered a scathing rebuke of the government for its failure to curb the violence.

極右翼國民聯盟黨主席喬丹·巴爾德拉嚴詞指摘政府未能遏止暴力。

"The government has failed in its duty; the head of state has not fulfilled his fundamental responsibility to protect the French people," he told reporters at the party headquarters.

「政府已然失職;國家元首未能履行其保護法國人民之根本職責,」他在該黨總部向記者如是說道。

"I call upon the French people at this moment to rise above their right to protest and instead exercise their right to vote," Bardella said.

「我呼籲法國人民此刻超越其抗議之權利,轉而行使投票權,」巴爾德拉表示。

He is campaigning alongside the far-right leader Marine Le Pen, who for months has consistently been shown by polling data to be the frontrunner in next spring's presidential election.

他正與極右翼領袖瑪麗娜·勒龐並肩競選,而後者數月以來的民調數據始終顯示,她將是明年春季總統選舉的領跑者。
