Families have been seen sleeping on the floor beneath tarpaulin sheets outside the Paris City Hall as they await housing.
Nearly 200 migrants, mostly women, children and families, have been gathered on the square in front of the building since August 5 amid a protest organised by the Utopia56 association.
The French based humanitarian association claims the move's aim is to find the migrants shelter while condemning the 'increasingly aggressive' expulsions taking place in France since its 2024 Olympic Games.
Images from the scenes show migrants with blankets and their belongings in plastic shopping bags as they sit under blue tarpaulin sheets.
'We will not move until a lasting solution is found,' Nathan Lequeux, coordinator of the Utopia56 association's Paris branch, told InfoMigrants.
