The French city of Toulouse has imposed a curfew on those under 16 during "high-risk" World Cup matches.
On Thursday, authorities in Toulouse announced a curfew for minors under 16 during certain World Cup games deemed "high-risk," following riots that marred celebrations of Paris Saint-Germain's Champions League victory.
City officials specified that the matches in question are those involving France, as well as Morocco's games against Brazil, Scotland, and Haiti, in addition to Tunisia's match against the Netherlands.
Toulouse Mayor Jean-Luc Moudenc explained in a press conference that the curfew would be enforced from 10 PM to 5 AM for those under 16 unaccompanied by an adult in the downtown area of the southwestern city.
He added that this measure is limited to a "specific selection of matches, chosen in coordination with the regional authorities, considered high-risk."
Mayor Moudenc justified the move due to the unrest and damage suffered by Toulouse and other cities following the Champions League final on May 30.

He emphasized that the measure aims to "protect citizens and minors," noting a rise in juvenile delinquency in France's fourth-largest city.
The mayor of Clermont-Ferrand, located in central France, announced a similar measure for those under 16 this week.
France is set to play its first World Cup match against Senegal on Tuesday.
