During the demonstration, a group of Turks attacked the protesters with hammers and knives, injuring more than ten people, including a child.

As soon as it got dark and amid a curfew in nine major French cities, including Lyon, about 150 Turks took to the streets and began threatening Armenians, shouting “Allah Akbar” and “Where are the Armenians?”.

“Allahu Akbar (God is great) is not a nationalist slogan, but an Islamic slogan”, wrote one user, commenting on the controversial video posted on Twitter by the Arabic-language website DuvaR.

“Erdogan is trying to wipe out the Armenians from the Earth”, wrote another user.
