The French government has deployed thousands of police officers Paris to counter fresh yellow vest demonstrations, which are planned to be held alongside global climate rallies in the capital on Saturday.

Axar.az reports citing Press TV that at least seven thousand officers, along with launchers and armored police units, are being deployed in the French capital on Saturday to face those who "obviously want to take revenge" and have already announced that they “will stop at nothing," said Paris police chief Didier Lallement on Friday.

"We will have the forces necessary to prevent destructive acts," he said. "We have changed our strategy and mode of intervention."

He explained that 180 motorcycle units and a number of highly mobile police squadrons are in reserve to be mobilized anywhere across the city.

Firefighters are also prepared to intervene if necessary, accordion to police.

Lallement also called on the organizers to take action to "guard against those who want to fight dirty.”

The Yellow Vest protests, named after the high-visibility safety jackets worn by most of the demonstrators, started in mid-November over fuel tax increases but morphed into a nationwide movement against government policies. The rally - the third in a worldwide series of climate rallies - was attended by hundreds of thousands of students across Australia, Asia, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and North and South America, calling on the world leaders to do something to address climate change.
