Paris riots: Is it safe to visit the French capital?

Paris experienced two nights of unrest following the killing of a 17-year-old by police officers. The clashes occurred in non-tourist areas, primarily in the western suburbs of Paris. The majority of the city remains unaffected, and the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) has not issued a travel warning for France. However, tourists are advised to avoid protests and follow the advice of authorities due to potential disruptions.
