PARIS (AA) - An Anadolu Agency correspondent was manhandled by police on Saturday during protests against coronavirus restrictions in Paris.
The Turkish reporter, who was covering the largest of four protests in the French capital that marched from Pont de Neuilly to Avenue Victoria with a police cordon, was pushed while shooting.
According to footage recorded by the reporter, two officers, who were preparing to intervene in demonstrators, came to his side following guidance from another officer.
He was pushed by police and fell with his camera.
Demonstrators have been held for four straight weeks against the government's policies to combat the virus.
The reporter was slightly injured on July 24 when a gas canister fired by police struck him while he was filming similar demonstrations.
