FRANCE - Nearly 2,000 people were arrested in the last 24 hours amid a day of protests that led to the closure of hundreds of high schools and universities across the country.
The student demonstrations have caused disruptions to
academic activities and a heavy security presence, as authorities work to
contain the crowds and maintain public services.
The temporary closure of educational institutions reflects
the scale of the protests, which have brought thousands of students to the
streets to express their rejection of the measures and decisions that sparked
the demonstrations.
The situation remains tense in various French cities, as
authorities assess the consequences of the day's protests and the potential
impact on educational activities in the coming days.
