Banks and shops on the Champs-Élysées have been boarded up

We've already mentioned windows being boarded up in Paris, and it's happening in other cities too.

At an Yves Rocher cosmetics store on the iconic Champs-Élysées, staff said they were merely taking precautions, as they do whenever there is a risk of protest.

Ultra-right as well as ultra-left protesters are known to be active in Paris, Marseille, Lyon, Nantes and other cities. But in smaller towns too there's a risk of spontaneous unrest. Greens leader Marine Tondelier appealed for people to look out for each other.

Of the 30,000 extra police deployed for today's second round, 5,000 are in Paris and its suburbs.

Supporters of the left-wing New Popular Front are planning to rally in the Place de la République and police are clearly preparing for potential clashes.

US tourist Arthur Leopold was staying in a hotel near Place de la République when he was told he had to find another place to stay.

"Our hotel was just off République Square and the cop standing outside told us to move hotels because there would be mass riots," he told the BBC.
