One police officer and a protester were seriously injured on Saturday in clashes during an unauthorised demonstration against the construction of a water reservoir for farm irrigation in western France.
Police fired tear gas to repel some protesters who threw fireworks and other projectiles as they crossed fields to approach the construction area in the rural district of Sainte-Soline. At least three police vehicles were set alight, television footage showed.
In all, seven protesters and 24 police officers were injured, said Darmanin, who blamed the violence on around 1,000 far-left activists. Disturbances had started in nearby areas on Friday ahead of Saturday's violence, with police detaining 12 people, he added.
