A coalition of over 100 community organizations, Le Revers de la Médaille, has reported that nearly 20,000 people were forcibly displaced in the Paris region ahead of the 2024 Olympics. Their report, released Monday, claims that from April 2023 to September 2024, authorities evicted 19,526 individuals from informal housing, including tent camps and shelters. The group refers to this as a form of "social cleansing," asserting that some individuals faced multiple evictions and could be counted more than once.
