French strike protests
France has seen protests and strikes in 260 cities and towns, called by labor unions and student groups over the rising cost of living and deteriorating public services and education, posing a fresh challenge to President Emmanuel Macron. Authorities deployed around 70,000 police officers, while domestic intelligence estimated that between 500,000 and 700,000 demonstrators would take part outside Paris. The protests come five months before the presidential election, following weeks of unrest that have shaken the government.
