France deploys 70,000 officers tomorrow for announced new protests
French authorities are deploying 70,000 officers to maintain order amid new protests against government policies, education issues, and rising living costs. The government aims to prevent a repeat of last week's riots, which involved looting and arson in several cities. Concerns are rising about participation from various groups, including the yellow vests movement. Interior Minister Nuñez warned of potential violence from far-left groups targeting government buildings. The military will assist police, and curfews and area bans are in effect. Retailers are preparing for chaos, with many closing shops. Meanwhile, Italy is also bracing for protests, increasing security measures in cities like Milan and Rome.
