Footage shows workers sweeping up shattered glass, clearing rubbish and repairing vandalised shopfronts as residents and cleanup crews work to restore the affected areas.

Ouri Zagoury, whose video game stores near Place de la République were looted on Saturday, said groups had been entering and leaving his shops for hours. He said he had called the police but was unable to stop the looting himself.

Zagoury said the cleanup was an attempt to bring some order back and move forward after the damage.
