France’s PM Edouard Philippe has announced the reopening of bars and restaurants nationally, although Paris will need careful monitoring despite no longer being a virus hotspot.
A ban on traveling more than 100km (60 miles) has also been relaxed, but the bar on gatherings of more than 10 people remain.
“Freedom will become the rule, bans the exception,” Mr Philippe said.
More than 28,000 people have died of the virus in France.
France will look to reopen borders with other European countries on 15 June, he said.
