On 19 November 2023, a mass stabbing took place in Crépol, in the Drôme department of southeastern France. One person, 16-year-old Thomas Perotto, was killed. During the incident, two other victims aged 23 and 28 were seriously injured and placed in emergency care, while fourteen other people suffered minor injuries. An investigation into "homicide and attempted homicide in an organized gang" was opened; in the days that followed nine people were arrested in Toulouse and Romans-sur-Isère on suspicion of being the perpetrators.
The case received national media and political attention, with President Emmanuel Macron and the government responding to statements made by political opponents, as well as paying tribute to Perotto at the National Assembly. The attack caused a media frenzy and multiple far-right rallies, after it was reported that the attackers yelled "We're here to kill the whites!"
