New prolongation of the state of emergency

Following the attack of Nice in the evening of the 14^th of July 2016, the French Parliament adopted on July 21, a new bill renewing the state of emergency. It’s the fourth time since November 2015.

Starting from the 26th of July, 2016, the state of emergency will be extended for six more months instead of three. Border controls are still strengthened, including inside the Schengen area.
