Summary
Student protests over teacher shortages, overcrowded classrooms, and deteriorating school buildings in France have escalated into violence, leading to the closure of over 400 schools and educational institutions. The protests, which began in the Paris region, have spread across the country, resulting in clashes with police, arson, and vandalism. Authorities have detained nearly 2,000 people, including over 600 on Wednesday alone. Education Minister Edouard Geffray announced that affected schools will offer distance learning. The Interior Ministry reported 1,949 detentions and 305 police and gendarmes injured. Justice Minister Gerald Darmanin described the situation as a public-order disturbance, questioning whether all those involved in the violence were students. The protests have also spread to universities, with blockades reported at about 30 campuses. Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu convened a crisis meeting, with intelligence agencies suggesting hard-left politicians may have initiated the protest movement.
