Another ban on burqinis in France
BASTIA (France) • A mayor on the French island of Corsica yesterday became the third nationwide to ban burqinis, after the full-body Islamic swimsuit allegedly sparked violent clashes.
The new ban follows a brawl last Saturday between locals and families of North African origin after tourists took pictures of women swimming in burqinis.
