A video making fun of the recent bans and ongoing debate about the wearing burkinis in France's beaches was broadly circulated in Turkish social media circles.

Titled "Would you like some Islamophobia with that Croissant?," the video uploaded by BRKN TV's Twitter and Facebook account explains the ongoing debate while making fun of the attitude towards Muslim women in France.

Recently, France came under fire by activists for prohibiting Muslim women from wearing the body-concealing swimsuit burkini, and forcing Muslim women wearing it to strip in 15 seaside towns where the ban is imposed.

The ban prompted an outcry from French Muslims and human rights activists.
