Quentin, a 23-year-old right-wing student from France, tragically lost his life following an attack by antifascist activists in Lyon. He had participated in a peaceful demonstration organized by the feminist collective Némèsis outside a Science Po event featuring Rima Hassan, a radical European Parliament member from the La France Insoumise party. His role was to ensure the safety of the activists during the event, but he ended up being targeted and killed due to his political beliefs.

The collective Némèsis publicly announced his death, describing him as a courageous young activist who was 'cowardly murdered by violent militias of the extreme left.' They emphasized that Quentin was attacked simply for defending his convictions and protecting those who came to express their ideas peacefully. This incident raises concerns over political violence and the increasingly polarized atmosphere surrounding political demonstrations in France.

This tragic event highlights the dangers faced by individuals participating in political activism, regardless of their ideological stance. It also brings attention to the rising tensions between various political groups in France, where actions taken by both the right and left can escalate into violence. The implications of Quentin's death will likely resonate within political circles and may influence future demonstrations and public discourse on political extremism in the country.
