France crackdown

Clashes continue between French police and protesters. Students have once again taken to the streets in several cities to protest the country’s education system. Protesters rallied outside schools, blocking entrances and nearby streets as they chanted slogans against the government. They demand better conditions, citing overcrowded classrooms, heavy workloads, poor-quality learning materials and teacher shortages. The movement has grown steadily since students began blocking high school entrances on September 17. Tuesday saw the largest demonstrations so far, with the Interior Ministry putting the turnout at 256,000, while organizers said as many as 450,000 participated Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu described Tuesday’s unrest as the most violent student protest in decades. The government says more than 6,000 people, mostly minors, have been arrested since the unrest began.
