The claim that France is rounding up thousands of migrants and the homeless to 'clean' up its streets ahead of the 2024 Olympics in Paris is partially supported by evidence. According to a CNN report, the French government has been relocating homeless people, many of whom are migrants, from Paris to other parts of the country. This effort has been ongoing for several months, with the government denying any direct connection to the upcoming Olympics. However, NGOs and some officials believe the Games are a factor in the timing of these relocations. The relocations are part of a broader plan to alleviate pressure on Paris's emergency shelter services, but the lack of long-term housing solutions and proper communication has led to criticism. The relocations have been described by some as 'social cleansing,' and there are concerns that many relocated individuals may end up back on the streets in other regions. The French government maintains that the relocations aim to provide better support for the homeless population, but the execution and timing have raised questions about the true motivations behind the effort.
