Student protests: Temporary ban on fireworks and fuel transport in Tarn-et-Garonne
Updated on 01/10/2026
Since 29 September, several schools in Tarn-et-Garonne have been affected by student protests.
Some actions near the schools have resulted in public order disturbances. Projectiles have been thrown, thefts and vandalism have occurred, rubbish bins have been set on fire, and fireworks mortars have been used.
In view of the risks of further attacks against people and school facilities, including the use of pyrotechnic devices or attempted arson, Sébastien Cauwel, Prefect of Tarn-et-Garonne, has issued a prefectural order banning throughout the entire department, from Thursday 1 October at 6:00 p.m. to Tuesday 6 October 2026 inclusive:
* the purchase, sale, transfer, carrying, transportation, and use of entertainment fireworks and pyrotechnic articles;
* the distribution, retail sale, purchase, carrying, and transportation of fuels, flammable or corrosive products (except for legitimate purposes).
These measures aim to prevent any threat to the safety of persons, property, and establishments.
Preventive checks may be carried out near high schools to ensure public order is maintained. Any failure to comply with the provisions of this order will result in criminal penalties.
