Security measures announced for football matches in France and Tunisia
Authorities in France and Tunisia have implemented security and traffic measures ahead of upcoming football matches to ensure public order.
In Dijon, France, the Prefecture of Côte-d’Or has issued an order for the Ligue 2 match between DFCO and AS Saint-Étienne scheduled for August 31. Due to the expected influx of Saint-Étienne supporters, the visitor capacity is limited to 748. Additionally, supporters are prohibited from circulating or parking in Dijon's city center from the afternoon of August 31 until the morning of September 1. The use of pyrotechnics in the city center is also banned during this period.
In Tunisia, the Ministry of the Interior announced traffic restrictions around the Hammadi Agrebi Stadium in Radès for the match between Club Africain and Espoir de Hammam Sousse. Measures include prohibitions on driving and parking on sections of National Road No. 1, with specific access routes and designated parking areas established for ticket holders and season ticket holders.
