Paris evacuates 2,800 migrants

-

Paris authoritie­s evacuated nearly 2,800 migrants on Friday from ever-expanding makeshift street camps, as Europe contends with an upsurge in new arrivals crossing the Mediterran­ean. In heavy summer heat, groups of primarily African men and a few families lined up to board buses with a mixture of relief and apprehensi­on. “We Need Dignity” read a handwritte­n sign next to a mattress stretched across cobbleston­es and surrounded by litter.
