TEHRAN (Iran News) – The ‘Research, Assistance, Intervention, Deterrence’ elite police unit was mobilized in Dijon, France, on Monday, to help restore order following days of clashes between Chechen and North African gangs.

Shootings, car arsons, and confrontations hit the city’s Gresilles district after a 16-years-old Chechen boy was reportedly assaulted by a drug dealer on Friday.

Several residents were injured during clashes as the rioters brandished various types of weapons and firearms. Security cameras across the district were vandalized which complicated the work of gendarme police deployed in Dijon since the beginning of the unrest
