23-Year-Old Quentin Beaten to Death Outside Lyon University
A 23-year-old man named Quentin was brutally attacked and killed outside Sciences Po Lyon on 12 February. Militants linked to the Antifa-backed Jeune Garde repeatedly struck him in the head.
Deadly Clash Over Women’s Safety Campaign
Quentin was working security for Némésis, a group campaigning for women’s safety across Europe. Around 40 militants confronted a team of just 15 security staff protecting female activists from the right-wing feminist collective.
The violence erupted at a conference hosted by La France Insoumise MEP Rima Hassan. Female members of Némésis unfurled a banner condemning “Islamo-leftists,” sparking a furious backlash.
Violence Escalates with Fatal Consequences
Alice Cordier, director of Némésis, revealed the female activists were physically attacked by anti-fascist militants. One 19-year-old woman was reportedly strangled and dragged during the melee.
The deadly confrontation highlights rising tensions between left-wing militant groups and right-wing feminist campaigners in France.
