Street protests resumed in France; clashes with police reported
Despite the organizers’ calls, protests in France on Saturday, 7 November, drew 146 thousand people, according to the country’s police, including 46 thousand who protested in Paris. The country’s unions—who are organizing the actions—give different figures. Organizers estimate the number of protesters on Saturday at 250 thousand across the country and 75 thousand in the capital.
In Paris, police were forced to use tear gas against people who threw stones and makeshift fireworks at officers. An attack by one group of protesters (the group’s total size was 200 people) on police officers was recorded. The attack occurred when officers tried to arrest a man who set a trash bin on fire in the square.
