Authorities in Paris have banned all outdoor exercise during the day as coronavirus deaths in France reached 10,000.
The new lockdown rules are in force between 10am and 7pm and come after Parisians took to the streets in numbers over the weekend to enjoy the sunny weather.
The capital’s mayor Anne Hidalgo and police prefect Didier Lallement said people should limit their movement to urgent or indispensable outings.
Starting on Wednesday, they said Parisians can now only exercise outdoors when "street crowd is at its lowest".

Those in the city were previously allowed to exercise outdoors for an hour while carrying a form explaining the reason why they were going out.
The death toll in France has risen above 10,000 - the fourth-highest figure after Italy, Spain and the US.
