FRANCE-ISLAM-CLOTHING-BURKINI
This picture taken on August 19, 2016 shows the bylaw forbidding women to wear Burkini at the Ponchettes beach, in Nice, southeastern France on August 19, 2016.
Nice has become the latest French seaside resort to ban the burkini, the body-concealing Islamic swimsuit that has sparked heated debate in secular France. Using language similar to bans imposed in a string of other towns on the French Riviera, the city barred apparel that "overtly manifests adherence to a religion at a time when France and places of worship are the target of terrorist attacks".
