    France Braces for High-Risk Protests on Halloween

    France is preparing for another wave of protests this weekend, with Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez warning of a 'very high risk of public disorder'. Around 70,000 police officers and gendarmes will be deployed nationwide to face demonstrations called by various groups, including the Yellow Vests, unions, and student organizations. Nuñez cited calls for violent acts and looting detected on social media as justification for the heavy security measures. Protests are planned for Saturday, with some groups calling for sit-ins and 'casseroles' (banging pots and pans) in the evening, raising concerns about potential unrest continuing into the night.
