Story summary

France has seen widespread protests over rising living costs and poor school conditions. On October 24-25, more than 400,000 people marched in major cities, with 1,314 protesters arrested and 53 police injured. The Interior Ministry reported that 70,000 police were deployed to maintain order. Protest groups demand further demonstrations on October 31 and a nationwide strike on November 5, as frustration spreads beyond students to include workers and firefighters. Labour unions and the Yellow Vests movement are calling for more mass rallies next Saturday. French far-right candidate Marine Le Pen is using the unrest to bolster her presidential campaign ahead of April-May elections. President Emmanuel Macron faces tough decisions as protests continue into a third week. Correction: The demonstration date mentioned in some articles was incorrectly reported; protests took place on October 25, with further calls for action on subsequent dates.
