In Brief

About 50 caravans illegally occupied the football field in Perrusson since July 13, agreeing to leave by July 26. In another incident on June 6, six caravans entered a stadium in Saint-Laurent-de-la-Salanque but were quickly evacuated by gendarmes.

Perrusson (Indre-et-Loire)

Since July 13, 2026, about 50 caravans of a traveling community have been illegally parked on the football stadium in Perrusson. The town hall requested a prefectural eviction order from July 17. An agreement was reached with the municipality of Saint-Hippolyte to accommodate them on a local parking area and adjacent private plots, allowing the community to leave the stadium by July 26.

Saint-Laurent-de-la-Salanque (Pyrénées-Orientales)

On June 6, 2026, six caravans of travelers illegally entered the Jo Maso stadium despite a prefectural ban. Gendarmes and police quickly evacuated them, and by 2:00 PM the caravans left the area, heading to the neighboring department of Aude. The mayor confirmed that illegal installations will not be tolerated and that the region meets its obligations for accommodating travelers.
