In France and Turkey, the demonstrations timed to the International Day of Workers' Solidarity turned into mass clashes with the police.

This is reported by Radio Liberty.

In particular, in Turkish Istanbul, demonstrators attempted to break through to the central Taksim Square, but the police surrounded the approaches to the square, as mass actions in the city center were banned by local authorities.

As a result of the clashes, several people were injured, dozens of protesters were detained.

At the same time, the French police in Paris, in order to pacify the hooligans who invaded the ranks of the local May Day demonstration, used tear gas.

According to the Paris police prefecture, unknown faces in masks and hoods threw bottles with a combustible mixture and garbage into the security forces. As a result, two policemen suffered.

As reported by the "Observer", on Pervomae in Kharkov, retirees called to stop the "bloody ATO".
