Original source: midilibre.fr

In Brief

Two illegal caravan camps reported in France: 120 in Vourles and about 20 near Nîmes. Mayors negotiate, seek state support.

Vourles (Rhône)

About 120 caravans have illegally occupied a plot belonging to the inter-municipal association of the Garon valley (CCVG) since Sunday. The entrance was blocked with concrete blocks, but they were moved. The mayor of Vourles said this is not the first time and asked for state support for dignified reception of communities.

Vestric-et-Candiac (Gard)

About 20 caravans have been illegally installed on a plot near the stadium since May 18. The caravans belong to a Baptist traveller community who illegally connected to electricity and water. Mayor Daniel Fischot said negotiations are underway, and departure is planned for next week, without use of force.
